It's time for the cutting and tasting!
As you can see in the attached picture, it maintained it's beautiful color on the outside. The paste is nice and firm on the inside. The flavor was a bit sour, but mostly creamy and nice. The cracker helped mask the sourness. Not sure where that sourness came from, and on my next make I want to try to resolve the milling problem and reduce the sourness, but overall I am quite pleased with this effort.
Unfortunately, I do not taste much of the wine flavor - even around the rind. Hmmm....
Still happy with the result though === for a first effort!
