Dan Holland joins Phoebe Weller, The Roving Fromagiere, for an inspirational visit to George Mewes Cheese in Glasgow with a view to creating the ultimate yuletide cheeseboard. Rather than being an after-thought, Phoebe advises us to be inspired with the cheeses we choose and to to pay more attention to cheese at Christmas time!
