I took part in a wine cheese matching experiment for "Wine" magazine that
cast doubt on the cheese/red wine partnership about 20 years ago, Leo. The
article was to be called
"Perfect partners"

It ended up being called "Perfect Partners?"

Mind you, they didn't include any of the cheeses that I reckon to be a half
way decent match with red wines.
