Different types of wine suit different kinds of foods. When thinking about a common pairing like cheese and wine, you might not realise that it’s important to choose your wine based on the types of cheese you will be serving. Some types of cheese are stronger than others. There are also textural differences and all of these factors determine whether or not the wine and cheese will complement one another. When serving sparkling wine or champagne, there are a few types of cheese from which you can choose.
\nFor a luxurious treat, opt for Triple Cr\u00e8me cheeses. These cheeses are rich and buttery. They have a mild flavour and are loved for their whipped texture. The higher butterfat content in these cheeses means that they will coat the mouth in delicious flavour. This creamy flavour is beautifully balanced when washing it down with some sparkling wine.
\nCamembert cheese is a popular choice in many homes and it has a scrumptious soft texture and unmistakable flavour. It’s the fruity flavours in the wine that work so well with this type of cheese and this is why they complement one another so well. There are also other cheeses that are similar to Camembert and they can also be paired with fruity sparkling wine.
\nGruyere is dense and has a rich flavour. The light flavour of sparkling wine helps enhance the flavour of this cheese for a truly elegant wine and cheese pairing. This type of cheese can be served as part of a cheese plate or you can add it to your fondue if you prefer. Alternatively, for a Champagne breakfast, you can serve a Gruyere Quiche.
\nAnother great idea is to experiment. Try pairing your favourite bubbly with various types of cheeses and see how much you enjoy the taste experience. This will help you make the best pairings when entertaining.
