Try these Cheeses with Port

By Marilyn McGuire of the Cracker Barrel store in Hopkinton

English Stilton—Rich, semisoft cheese with a zingy blend of blue and cheddar cheeses. Excellent with vintage port. Parmesan Reggiano—A very sharp, very salty dry aged cheese, whose flavor intensifies as it gets older. Excellent with tawny port. Roquefort—This blue veined cheese is semisoft and melts in your mouth. It has a sharp tang. Excellent with any red port. Wensleydale with Cranberries—This is a soft English cheese with dried cranberries throughout. It has a bit of sweetness and goes well with white port.
