"The wine world is full of fantastic takes on aroma, from the sublime to surprising (see tasting notes about cut green grass or asphalt on a summer's day). Try to immerse yourself in the bouquet and taste of wine - or cheese, or coffee - and let the descriptions flow, no matter how wackey they get."
The champagne soaked camembert thing (French, soft, not so much pongy as orally tangy - I think it had more taste than smell [although that could be my closed up nose holes]) did not taste specifically of champagne - in fact I don't even remember noticing a hint of that.... But it was FUCKING AWESOME: definitely enhanced by the champers.
Maybe it's like red + blue = purple or paper + pen = a letter - the two things combine into something totally new, and awesome. Flavourwise I mean. This cheese + champagne did not become a mug.
But yes, it was soooo good. Kathy bought a bit of it - I bought mouldy stuff in the end - but she let me have some, thereby securing my heart for the rest of my lifetime.
P.S. Re the picture, this is just a random picture I found (on pinterest, via Google). Other champagnes are available.
