I love how this cheese and wine pairing chart observes the characteristics of the wine and the cheese, and also the reason behind each pairing. What an insightful way to get started! My mouth is currently watering.

I’m not sure whether to start with red, white, or pink, so maybe I’ll just buy all three! You can also make your own wine, or your own cheese! As a homesteader, I think it’s fun to try my hand at everything. Whether it actually turns out is another question, which is why I always keep store-bought options on hand!
