Wine And Cheese Friday Celebrates 5 Years!

Maria and Neil have been reviewing wines and cheeses for 5 years already. In addition to their standard wine and cheese pairings, they've been on the quest for all kinds of wine and cheese experiences. They've gone cheese tasting, made cheese, tried some well-known and not so well-known wines, explored wine and cheeses from many regions of the world, eaten wine ice cream, paired wine and chocolate cake, played bocce while drinking wine, explored a cheese cave in Europe and visited a few farms.

They created a slideshow with behind the scenes moments for you to enjoy. Won't you join us in our celebration of 5 years?
