Monteillet Frommagerie in Dayton, WA. If you are ever nearby, I would highly recommend going to this establishment. Located on a farm off the beaten path, which made it even more intriguing. Erin was our host to taste an amazing selection of cheeses with wine pairings. Oh my gosh - too wonderful for words.
This is the chevre - 3 varieties: would be excellent on toast or made into a cheesecake. There is even a wasabi one!
These five were my favorite, probably because they were the most flavorful. Provencal (in the ramiken)was absolutely incredible - tasting the goats milk, salt, rosemary, truffle oil, garlic, peppercorn, etc. I could have eaten the entire bowl full, but I didn't - had wee bites with rose and a red table wine, the perfect compliment - and the taste of it changed with the different wines.
Here is Erin with her wine selections. She was delightful, funny, passionate about cheese, and a pleasure to meet. I think that Natalie Portman looks like her. Our visit to this charming cheese farm was the highlight of our day!
