Pairing Wine & Cheese

Wine and cheese pairing? Yes, please! At Bishop Estate Vineyard and Winery, we love to start the year off with pairing 6 of our delicious wines with 6 fantastic cheeses. What goes into picking the right wine with the right cheese? Here are a few tips!

First, you want to taste and think about the intensity of the wine You want to pair with a cheese of equal intensity. For example, we pair our Cranberries Dream, a sweet Niagara white wine, with a Cranberry Infused Cheddar from Keystone Farms. The intensity of the tart and sweet of the wine pairs stupendously with the tart and creaminess of the cheese.

Second, the steps to tasting the wine with the cheese are key! Always sip your wine first. Think about the notes. Fruit Forward? Oak? Earthy? Next, take a bite of your cheese. Mild? Creamy? Sharp? Then sip the wine again! Take note to how the second sip of wine pairs together with the cheese! AMAZING!!!

Third, be creative and go nutty! Try red and white wines, dry and sweet wines, creamy and nutty cheeses, or soft and hard cheeses!

Stop in to try our January Wine & Cheese Pairing any day of the week, all month long!
