Parmesan and Rosé It seems that in paradise, if we could get there in our lifetime, food would be just like this: slices of Parmesan and a glass of rosé wine. And paired with nutty hummus, you are guaranteed to experience a true gastronomic orgasm. Cheddar and Dry Red Wine Cheddar cheese is a great match for dry red wine. To enhance the enjoyment, we recommend complementing the glass of wine with a sandwich made of Cheddar and onions, which should be lightly sautéed in a pan beforehand. Manchego and Sauvignon Blanc Manchego cheese is made from sheep's milk, which is why it has a rather sharp taste with nutty notes. This cheese pairs well with vegetables roasted to a delicious crisp and fruity white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc or Verdejo. Gruyère and Sherry Gruyère is classified as a sweet cheese with a pleasant, pronounced nutty aroma. A wonderful choice for an appetizer! To truly impress your guests, serve it with sherry, and don’t forget to put a jar of peanut butter on the table. This combination will leave no one indifferent. Gouda and Chardonnay Forget everything you knew about cheese before! We suggest you do this: just buy a wheel of Gouda cheese and a couple of bottles of good old Chardonnay — that will be enough to celebrate the end of the workweek or your exquisite taste. Camembert and Chardonnay Camembert has a creamy yet sufficiently sharp taste, which pairs excellently with Chardonnay. Roasted chicken to a golden crust, rice dressed with mushroom sauce, and cheese — such a meal will make you feel like a true representative of the aristocracy. Moreover, preparing such a dish won’t take much of your time, which cannot be said about the money, considering our realities. Burrata and Brut Rosé Craving something creamy with a rich, intense flavor? Burrata is the best solution. As for the wine, in this case, there are few options: sparkling wine or champagne. We always advocate for Italian classics: Lambrusco or Brut Rosé. Brie and Riesling Riesling, unfortunately, is an underrated wine. It is often considered too sweet. However, this wine with a bright fruity flavor and honey notes pairs excellently with creamy Brie, which balances its sweetness. So instead of doubting, take the risk — you won’t regret it. Gorgonzola and Muscat Gourmets claim that dessert wine should have at least a sweetish taste, at most — be much sweeter than the cheese served with it. Why? This allows you to enjoy the taste of the wine for as long as possible without letting it dissolve in your mouth without a trace. For a complete dessert, you can always add apple pie or vanilla ice cream to this combination, or better yet — all together. Such a dish can be a wonderful conclusion to a festive dinner.
