Cheese and Wine Pairing.

Today's post is for the cheesy ones who like the combination of wine with cheese over a conversation , like me. 

As you might know wine and cheese go hand in hand and this is a small guide for you to pair them in order to enhance the flavours of both.




Brie Cheese

This is a soft and creamy French cheese which has a buttery and slightly sweet texture. 

Eat with..
Champagne and sparkling wines such as Sottovoce Chardonnay and Sottovoce Gellewza.

Fresh Goat Cheese

This is also known as Chevre and it can be found in different shapes and also seasoned with black pepper and other herbs. 

Eat with..
Dry white wine such as La Torre Chardonnay and LaTorre Merlot.


Parmeggiano Reggiano

This is the famous italian cheese which has a hard, dry texture with a distinctive taste.

Eat with..
Red wine such as Cittadella Red and Sangre de Toro.

Pecorino

Made from sheep's milk which has a hard texture and is widely used as an alternative to parmesan cheese. Also, this is an excellent grating cheese. 

Blue Cheese

Typically has a strong flavour but you can also find those having more sweetness.


Eat with..
Sweet wine such as California Zinfandel and also Rose d'Anjou. 



I hope I gave you some ideas for your date night-in!

Love,
