Wine tasting with our ASHA sunglasses!Last week we covered red wine and cheese pairings, this week we will cover white wines and cheeses that pair best with it!
If you dont know what kind of wine fits your palate, you should definitely go to some wineries and try out their tastings. They'll give you a tasting card that allows you to try 5-6 different wines and from there, you can decide what kind of wine is your favorite! Life pro tip: reds pair best with red meats and chocolate, white wines pair well with seafood and most desserts. You can impress your dinner guests with that kind of knowledge!
Now moving on to whites and the cheeses that compliment them:
Chardonnay: Fruit flavors range from apple and lime in cool climates to tropical fruits in warmer climates. Pair Asiago cheese or a creamy Havarti. Throw in a few almonds and you’ve got yourself a pairing that will impress everyone.
Sauvignon Blanc: Fresh and crisp with flavors of grapefruit and grass. Pair with feta, goat cheese and some pine nuts.
Pinot Grigio: Usually dry with fruit flavors of pear and apple with hints of lemon. Pair with humboldt fog chevre, fresh mozzarella cheese, and fig jam.
Cheers everybody!
