With a thousand-year tradition, it had its own stand at Madrid Fusi\u00f3n, where one of the highlights was a tasting of its three maturities with different types of wine. Each pairing revealed the cheese\u2019s versatility. The 2015 Organic Oloroso closed the tasting with what was dubbed the \u201cSurprising Harmony\u201d: \u201cthe meeting of a cheese and a wine of enormous character, giving rise to a fascinating play of contrasts\u201d. For this pairing, the 2015 Organic Oloroso accompanied a 27-month Grana Padano Riserva, with an intense, even straw colour and a markedly grainy texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>For Federico Oldenburg, the Williams Organic Oloroso \u201cis an absolute rarity, as it is unusual to find wines in the Jerez region from a single vintage (with static ageing), bottled en rama (straight from the cask) and, even more so, organic\u201d. For this food expert, \u201cit is a dry Oloroso with a very fine profile, not at all heavy, yet with enough character and persistence to balance the intensity of this cheese and enhance the pleasure of tasting them together\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Williams &#038; Humbert\u2019s 2015 Organic Oloroso closed the Grana Padano pairing tasting led by Federico Oldenburg at Madrid Fusi\u00f3n.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1689,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1107],"tags":[1250,1132,1128,1150,1099,1095],"class_list":["post-3471","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-pairings","tag-madrid-fusion-en","tag-oloroso","tag-organic-wine","tag-pairing","tag-sherry-wines","tag-williams-humbert"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3471","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3471"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3471\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4221,"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3471\/revisions\/4221"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1689"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3471"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3471"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/global.williams-humbert.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3471"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
