The only kind of cheese which is not combined with white wines, it's blue cheese. In most cases, it sounds brighter than wine, and disguising its taste.

Goat cheese is a fantastic pair with Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay.
In the Loire Valley, the origin of Sauvignon Blanc, you can see numerous flocks of goats. French goat cheese is quite dense and chalky texture due to high calcium content. As aging these cheeses acquire the sharpness, which helps to make fantastic pair with Sauvignon Blanc and Chardonnay. Take note crottin de Chavignol or Humbolt fog as the perfect companions for white wine.




The perfect companion for Prosecco — aged Asiago. In the province of Veneto vineyards, dominated by grapes "Garganega" from which to create wines of Soave. This wine has a fresh taste, like Sauvignon Blanc and poslevkusii clearly audible notes of bitter almonds. These colors make this wine surprisingly good with a pair of young Asiago. But aged Asiago goes well with fruity semi-dry Prosecco or Moscato d'asti.




Sweet Riesling harmonises perfectly with the nutty flavor fondue. Types of semi-dry Riesling (German Riesling from the Mosel, for example) perfectly with the fondue. Sweetness and acidity well blended with the nutty rich flavor fondue and give the taste exquisitely sweet and slightly salty undertones.



Chardonnay is a great pair with cream cheese double or triple fat.

 

The best examples of Chardonnay are created in a cool climate where the grapes are inherent in complex floral and fruity aromas, and aging in barrels gives the wine hints of vanilla and Fudge. I wonder what cheese from cow's milk (as, for example, epws) are produced, usually in the same region, where Chardonnay. These cheeses have a pungent odor, formed on the crust in the process of aging. However when it is combined with Chardonnay, the pungent smell goes away! If you don't like this cheese and its intense flavor, try a blend of Chardonnay with other cheeses: Delice de Bourgogne or brie.
