Cheese
and Wine
wine
is the perfect partner for a sophisticated cheese board. Wine
and cheese pairings are tricky; no two cheeses are the same, and
matching the perfect cheese to its perfect wine calls for much
care and thought. Wine and cheese pairings are selected like color
in interior design, you can either match or contrast, but the
flavor and textures have to complement each other in your palate.
It is also a matter of taste…your own. Do you love a good Pinot
Grigio, but are having Roquefort? Hey, rules were meant to be
broken! Enjoy it!
To wine selection easier for you, we’ve broken it down so you
can choose by wine type, cheese category, and most popular cheese.
Salut!

Cheese with a high fat content = Smooth, oily wine
