Original, classic, extraordinary. Words we would use describe The Elton cheese and fine wine box, our modern twist on a traditional cheese and wine hamper. Nothing beats sitting by a cosy fireplace enjoying a delicious glass of vino and a slab of cheese and we've provided the tasting notes so you can run your own cheese and wine night at home.

A British St Nectaire style cheese paired with a refined Sauvignon Blanc
Made with raw Montbeliarde cow's milk, travelling mere metres from milking parlour to VAT, this is a brand new cheese, made in the style of a St Nectaire. It has that absolutely critical 'squidge' that any great St Nectaire should have, milky slightly nutty sweetness, and then a burst of earthiness from the rind.
Paired with Pouilly Fume, this gives a cosy and elegant pairing. Pouilly Fume is a 2018 vintage white from Loire, 100% Sauvignon Blanc.
A phenomenal Lancashire paired with a unique peachy white wine.
Mrs Kirkham's, now made by Graham Kirkham, is the cheese equivalent of a critically endangered species. Its texture is utterly unique, similar to the base of a cheesecake, and simultaneously carries a combination of sharp creme fraiche and rich butter.
Paired with Pacherenc-du-Vic-Bilh, this gives tropical, almost grapefruit flavours. Pacherenc-du-Vic-Bilh is a 2017 Vintage from Sud-Ouest, 80% Petit Courbu and 20% Manseng.
A beautifully crafted blue with a rich and robust red.
Supreme Champion at the 2014 World Cheese Awards, this Stilton-style cheese shows what value can be added by manual cheesemaking. Made on a small scale, with hand-ladled curds, every cheese is pierced by hand so the 7 cheesemakers can feel the moisture and adapt the piercing accordingly for every individual cheese. Whilst it hits all the classic Stilton notes, some sharp saltiness, balanced by a richness, what stands out is the long, lingering toasted hazelnut melted butter on toast finish
Matched with Carmènère this results in a comforting pairing to finish. Carmènère is a 2019 vintage from Valle de Colchagua, 100% Carmènère.

Recipients of our gift were very impressed with quality of all products they received from cheesegeek. From their reaction it was a big with for the quality & flavour of wines, cheeses & extra. For that reason I can say it was money well spent on a gift that’s been very much appreciated. I’ll definitely be treating myself.

Elton has always been a great showman! Glad to hear they enjoyed their gift. - Tara @ cheesegeek
I sent this to my brother in law for a special birthday - he was delighted. He is a bit of a wine expert, so enjoyed the concept of having tasting notes for both cheese and wine
