For a richer flavor, use a high-quality Gorgonzola Dolce. Toast the macadamia nuts lightly before chopping to enhance their nutty flavor. Ensure the grape leaves are thoroughly drained to prevent a soggy filling. These stuffed grape leaves can be prepared a day in advance. Just be sure to keep them refrigerated until serving.
