Wine and Cheese Pairing
When you choose wine to go with cheese, suit the wine to the occasion, ambience, and mood. Cheeses generally make great partners with flashy young wines full of vigor and flavor. Earthy, robust flavors of aged goat cheese, makes the tannins of young red wines settle down, showing off the fruit flavors to greater advantage.
The following is a simple guideline for suggested pairings.
Crottin Serve with Champagne, Sauvignon Blanc, or Pinot Grigio
Camellia Serve with a Pinot Noir or Zinfandel
Bucheret Serve with a Merlot or Pinot Noir
Fresh Chevre Serve with a Rose, Pinot Grigio, or Champagne
Garlic Chive Chevre Serve with a Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio
Three Peppercorn Chevre Serve with a Pinot Noir or Zinfandel
Raw Milk Sharp Cheddar and Raw Milk Smoked Cheddar Serve with a Cabernet or Zinfandel
Pasteurized and Raw Milk Aged Feta Serve with Champagne, a Pinot Grigio, or Sauvignon Blanc
