National Wine and Cheese Day Alert




Rejoice National Wine and Cheese Day is but only 1 day away. It's the perfect occasion to host a small group of 10 or less who can easily adhere to socially distancing guidelines but still want to enjoy a glass of wine with some yummy cheese pairings. Be creative with your charcuterie board.

Cabernet and Aged Gouda
Gouda has a nutty flavor so perfect with a bold glass of cabernet.
Rose and Feta 
The crisp flavors of a Rose pairs well with tangy flavors of feta cheese. Prepare the feta with olive oil and herbs, serve with fresh warm bread. 
Chardonnay and Cheddar
The dryness of Chardonnay with its apple and pear notes will enhance the flavor of mild cheddar.
Pinot Noir and Brie 
Brie needs a wine that will go with its distinct nutty flavor. It's a match made in heaven with Brie cheese.
Pinot Grigio and Mozzarella 
Pinot Grigio is a light bodied wine with refreshing pear and melon flavors. A soft mild cheese like mozzarella will help enhance its earthy mineral flavors. 
Sauvignon Blanc and Goat Cheese
Sauvignon Blanc is light bodied wine, dry full of citrus and grassy notes.  It pairs well with the tangy flavor of goat cheese.
Prosecco and Parmesan Cheese
This pairing was made for each other. Both come from Italy and the bubbles in Prosecco cut through the saltiness of Parmesan making it a tasty combination.
Vintage Port and Bleu Cheese
Port is full bodied and sweet with tannins, It needs a powerful cheese to stand up to its strong taste and crumbly bleu cheese makes the perfect pairing.
