From Vine to Rind: A Quartet of Winederful Cheese Encounters

Wine and cheese… a match made in heaven. Although there are no rules set in stone about pairing wine and cheese, there are some guidelines to follow as well as classic pairings. Think crisp Sauvignon Blanc paired with fresh goat cheese, a Pinot Gris & Viognier blend paired with Roquefort or our‚ Forge Port paired with Stilton.

The opposing tastes of fat and protein in cheese vs. the acidity and tannin in wines are why these two foods pair together so well. The primary characteristics in wine, tannin and acidity, have been shown to scrape off fatty proteins from the tongue, making wine an ideal palate cleanser for protein-rich foods.
