Which cheese do you combine with which wine? Santé gives you a crash course. This way you can put a top combination on the table tonight.
Useful guidelines
– White wine often pairs better with cheese than red wine.
– The riper the cheese, the older the wine may be.
– Cheese and wine from the same region usually make up the best match.
– Do not combine fresh wines with neutral or sweet cheeses; that accentuates the acidity.
– Red wines go better with soft, fine cheeses. White wines can handle stronger flavors.
– Cheese doesn't like oak, so avoid 'oaked wines'.
