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 in the summer sun enjoying a refreshing 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, al fresco or even in the park.
A light yet full bodied cheshire paired with a 2018 vintage rosé from Côtes de Provence.
Made by the Appleby family since 1952, it’s the last raw milk, clothbound Cheshire made in the UK today. They have managed to achieve that perfect balance of a cheese that’s light yet still full bodied. Moist yet still with a slight crumble.
Paired with Prunelle, this gives a fresh start to the pairings, transporting us to Wimbledon with flavours of strawberries with sour cream, and a tiny fresh basil bitterness in the background.
Prunelle is a 2018 vintage rosé from Côtes de Provence, 41% Grenache, 29% Syrah, 17% Cinsault and 13% Rolle.
A decadent and smooth brie paired with 2018 vintage from Rhône.
Like all great Bries, most notably the world famous Brie de Meaux, Baron Bigod (pronounced By-God, because it is so damn good!!) has an absolutely perfect balance between rich decadent butter, and smooth earthy mushroom. Eating Brie should feel like a really extravagant and comforting experience, and Baron Bigod delivers on every level.
Paired with L'Esprit du Clos, this imparts a clear peaches and cream, or peach melba vibe when paired with the cheese and whisks us from the tennis to a majestic meadow picnic scene!
L'Esprit du Clos is a 2018 vintage from Rhône, 50% Viognier and 50% Roussane.
A rich blue or creamy cheddar paired with a 2018 vintage Syrah.
Blue. Harrogate Blue has a beautiful golden colour, and matured for a minimum of 10 weeks, it has all the time it needs to develop those creamy, moist, rich flavours that balance the sharp spiciness of the blue veining so craftily. Paired with Crozes Hermitage, the wine brings with it a definite pluminess for a smooth (just like Elton himself) finish.
No Blue. If you're not a fan of a blue, whilst we'd love to convert you, we also offer a no blue option with Pitchfork, an extra mature cheddar made in Somerset, with a dense and creamy texture. Paired with Crozes Hermitage, the wine gives hints of blackberry and cherry followed by melon. A true melt-in-the-mouth pairing.
Crozes Hermitage is a 2018 vintage from Rhône, 100% Syrah.

So glad to hear you enjoyed your Elton Cheese and wine box! Thank you for your BRIE-liant review. Tara @ TCG
A perfect little box of deliciousness.
We're glad you enjoyed the Elton in all his summer glory, we think you may also enjoy the Dolly to carry on those summer vibes. - Tara @ TCG
The Cheese Geek seemed like the perfect birthday gift for my stepfather, since I am overseas. I've just got off the phone with them - the Elton - box for 2 - was a huge success! Things my parents were thrilled about: the choice of cheese and wine pairings, the quality of the packing, and the "unboxing" gift experience! Things I was thrilled about - ability to order from overseas, to order well in advance and *pick a specific delivery day*. They delivered when I requested. The quantity of cheese was ample, so my parents say. An all-round good experience!
We're doing our happy cheese dance reading this! The Elton is a very new box and we're so happy to see how much cheese joy it is spreading. Thank you for your support Howard. Tara @ TCG
