Don’t you have a plan for this weekend? Are you a lover of gastronomy and cheese? If so, you can not miss the great Cheese Fair of Montanejos, the largest cheese event in the Valencian Community.
And is that lovers of good food know that cheese, if it can be paired better, is one of the great pleasures of our gastronomy. In Valencia, we are in luck, because just an hour from the city, in Montanejos, the largest cheese event in the Valencian Community is held.
The Montanejos Artisan Cheese Fair 2024 will be held from October 4 to 6 and, throughout the weekend, attendees will be able to meet first-hand the cheesemakers, producers and sellers of this delicacy.
So if you are more of cured cheese, goat cheese, blue cheese or you like a good tender cheese, you will have plenty of space to try dozens of types of your favorite cheeses and, if you want, you can take them home.
In addition, to complete this great gastronomic festival, at the Artisan Cheese Fair of Montanejos there will also be Valencian wines to pair those cheeses that have been your favorites. Because we all know that a good wine and a good cheese marry perfectly and even more when we are surrounded by experts who guide us in our choice.
