About this item
Broaden your palate and enhance your appreciation for gourmet flavor combinations with Tasting Wine and Cheese.Is there anything better than a great wine and cheese pairing? You might enjoy a robust cabernet with the sharp, aged cheddar, or perhaps a crisp Sancerre with a tangy, creamy chevre.Based on the curriculum Adam Centamore developed teaching at Formaggio Kitchen and the Boston Wine School, Tasting Wine and Cheese guides you through the world of flavor pairing with an emphasis on understanding and developing your own palate.Maitre d 'Fromage Adam Centamore teaches you how to first taste wines and cheeses separately, allowing you to understand the complex profiles of reds, whites, aged, and fresh. But wading through these waters is only half the battle.
About the Author
I'm a professional wine and cheese educator and writer who conducts private and corporate tastings. I'm certified by the Elizabeth Bishop Wine Program, and a member of the French Wine Society, the Society of Wine Educators, and the Wine and Spirits Education Trust. I am also the maître fromager for the Boston chapter of the Chevalier du Tastevin, a prestigious French wine society. For years I worked at Formaggio Kitchen, a world-renowned cheese importer in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Currently I serve as wine portfolio administrator for Bin Ends, an award-winning wine shop in the metro-Boston area.
When not teaching or working, I enjoy spending time with my family and engaging with my community. I love photography and I'm slowly learning French. An avid student of Mexican and French cuisine, I'm usually grilling something or another in my back yard with friends and music. I love to eat, drink, and learn.
