WINE AND CHEESE PAIRINGS
Chardonnay + Brie
Full-bodied whites like Chardonnay compliment mild, smooth cheeses
Bright Cellars Recommendation: Quinte Royale Chardonnay
Cabernet Sauvignon + Aged Gouda
Hard aged cheeses pair best with equally bold, ageable wines
Bright Cellars Recommendation: Pana Cabernet Sauvignon
Malbec + Sharp Cheddar
Potent cheeses need a full-bodied wine to match
Bright Cellars Recommendation: Lost City Malbec
Sauvignon Blanc + Goat Cheese
Acidic, crisp white wines mirror the acidity and avor of goat cheese
Bright Cellars Recommendation: Forty Winks Sauvignon Blanc
Moscato + Pepper jack
Sweeter wines help mellow spicy, zesty cheeses
Bright Cellars Recommendation: Burrasca Moscato
Zinfandel + Gruyère
Firm, nutty cheeses pair perfectly with jammy or spicy wines
Bright Cellars Recommendation: Mojave Rain Zinfandel
