Estate wines and local cheese pairing
" 
When it's time for cheese, many people still believe that it's the perfect time to bring out their best bottle of red wine. However, we now know that this is not the most interesting pairing: chemically, the milk proteins in cheese and the tannins in red wine are rather incompatible. With white wines, on the contrary, a balance is established between the acidity of the wine and the cheese.
Riesling is a delicious accompaniment to goat's and sheep's milk cheeses thanks to its freshness and acidity. A Pinot Gris will match the character of pressed cheeses.
Gewurztraminer has its place alongside a Munster or a Maroilles. Its beautiful structure and full-bodied character are a perfect match for these strong, assertive cheeses. The powerful aromas of the cheese and the sweetness of the wine balance each other during tasting.
