FAQs

Does this cheese melt?

This is an artisanal firm wedge that does not “flow” or melt like a traditional mozzarella. However, it is incredible when heated! Warming it up softens the sunflower base into a decadent, spreadable texture that intensifies the port wine notes.

What makes the purple swirls?

That beautiful marbling comes from a Port Wine Reduction, which provides both the striking visual contrast and a deep, slightly sweet finish that pairs perfectly with the savory sunflower base.

How should I serve this?

For the best experience, let the wedge sit at room temperature for 20 minutes before serving to let the flavors open up. It pairs beautifully with dark crackers, dried figs, or a glass of your favorite red wine.
