WINE & CHEESE PAIRING Sweet White Wines; Sweet wines are very complimentary to salty, strong cheeses like blues. They are also wonderful with spicy cheeses and very mild cheeses like Butterkase or Brie. Dry White Wines; Dry whites are fantastic with so many cheeses, Sauvignon Blanc with Goat cheese is a lovely combination, Chardonnay with Gruyere, Albarino with Campo de Montalban. A personal favorite is Apremont from the Savoie region of France with Adelegger cheese from Germany! Sweet Red Wines; Like sweet whites, sweet reds go beautifully with blue cheeses, also ParmigianoReggiano, Pecorino Romano and salame. They also complement the Chocolate Cheese and White Stilton with Cranberries. Dry Red Wines; Dry reds are challenging because the tannins can make fats taste flat. Great pairings are Merlot with Challerhocker, Cabernet Sauvignon with Piave, Chianti and other Tuscan reds with Asiago or 8 Year Old Cheddar. Pinot Noir and Cabernet Franc are great with Morbier, Raclette and other stinky cheeses! Sparkling Wines; Sparkling wines beg for a decadent Triple Crème like St Angel or Delice de Bourgogne. It’s a mind altering experience for sure!
