cheese party (count=847)

• Carl cooked delish roast
• My cheese contribution: Pecorino Brillo diVino

wedgeintheround: Brillo (high-spirited or merry in Tuscany) is not merely washed in wine, after a few months aging; the wheels are submerged for another month in terracotta vat-fulls of fermented rosso goodness. The zing of the sheep and zing of the wine combine to both balance and accentuate the nuance of each.
