Our team of professional on-staff sommeliers have put together an incredible selection of cheese pun and wine pairings for your next upscale dinner party or gourmet group function. Keep it classy!
1. GREGORY PECORINO & AMARONE
Enjoy this hard, aged cheese with a glass of sweet Amarone after dinner as you read the paper on the porch, being wise.
2. CUBA GOUDAING JR. & MERLOT
When paired with the dark, ripe, fruity flavor of a classic Merlot, the stiff saltiness of the cheese shines through. It will warm you up any night you decide to Netflix and chill with Snow Dogs.
3. EDDIE CHEDDAR & CABERNET SAUVIGNON
Bathe in nostalgia and Cabernet Sauvignon while mumbling along to your favorite garage rock anthems. The assertive flavor of this wine adds a little bite to the common cheddar slice.
4. AL GORGONZOLA & PORT
Spend the night separating (and perhaps recounting) your recyclables with a glass of sweet, red Port to counter the pungent saltiness of the cheese.
5. ANGELINA JOBRIE & CHARDONNAY
Your lips will remain soft (but probably won’t get any bigger) when sipping on a glass of fruity Chardonnay. The flavor neutral profile pairs well with the soft rind and creaminess of the Brie. Best enjoyed while applying for the Peace Corps.
6. CHEESUS CHRIST & BLOOD OF CHRIST
Enjoy modestly with the all-organic, Blood of Christ. Pray for forgiveness. Repeat.
