Five Cheeses to Pair with Wine

Oct 29, 2024Katharine Warner

There’s something truly magical about how the right cheese can enhance the flavors of a great wine. Here are five cheese pairings that are sure to impress your guests:

  1. Sharp Cheddar with Riesling: A Classic Combo Our crisp, aromatic Off-Dry Riesling (1st Degree), with its citrus notes, pairs wonderfully with a sharp cheddar. The wine's acidity cuts through the richness of the cheese, while the cheese's saltiness balances the wine's subtle sweetness.

  2. Brie with Chardonnay: A Luxurious Pairing Our luscious Barrel Fermented Chardonnay, with its notes of ripe apple and sweet pea, is a natural match for the creamy, earthy flavors of Brie. The wine's acidity helps to cleanse the palate, making it the perfect pairing for this indulgent cheese.

  3. Gouda with Pinot Noir: A Sophisticated Match Our smooth, fruit-forward Pinot Noir, with its cherry and strawberry notes, complements the nutty, caramel flavors of Gouda. The wine's tannins help to cut through the richness of the cheese, while the cheese's sweetness balances the wine's acidity.

  4. Blue Cheese with Port: An Indulgent Duo A rich, decadent blue cheese is a natural pairing for our luscious Port. The wine's sweetness and complexity balance the cheese's strong flavor, creating a luxurious and indulgent experience.

  5. Goat Cheese with Sauvignon Blanc: A Refreshing Pair A tangy goat cheese is a delightful pairing for our crisp, refreshing Sauvignon Blanc. The wine's bright acidity and citrus notes complement the cheese's creamy texture and slightly tart flavor.

Remember, the best way to find your perfect pairing is to experiment and have fun! So, grab a glass of wine, a plate of cheese, and let your taste buds do the talking. Cheers!
