If you really love goat cheese and want to try something that is unique and delicious, choose Kiku from Goats Leap Cheeses (www.goatsleap.com) in St. Helena, California. This round of fresh pasteurized goat’s milk cheese is wrapped in a fig leaf that has been soaked in Sauvignon Blanc. It is aged for about 3 weeks. Eat the fig leaf along with the cheese. This cheese is seasonal and thus a bit rare. However, now is the season so find it if you can. I buy Kiku at the St. Helena farmers market and at Dean & Deluca in Napa Valley.
