Blue Cheese Wine Pairing

BLUE CHEESE WINE PAIRINGS

Blue cheese is a very flavourful cheese with lots of salty fat yummy-ness. To get a wine to match this you need one that has lots of its' own flavour with an off dry body style(medium or medium dry sweetness) or one with a sweet body style. A wine's notes (flavours) can add to or take away from the pairing.


We found 6 affordable great tasting wines that paired very well; 3 whites and 3 reds. Some have a medium dry or medium body sweetness, while others even sweeter with a sweet body style. Another had a vibrant exotic note that also paired nicely with the blue cheese.

Here's our selections for Blue Cheese Wine Pairing (not in any particular order).



Baume Rheingau Riesling (Germany) - Rieslings are noteworthy for their off dry styles that pair nicely with lots of cuisine including hot n spicy Asian. This wine we chose has notes of Honey, Citrus Fruit, and Orchard Fruit. With a medium dry body and its' honey note (1st note, so good honey flavour), this makes a very good match for the blue cheese.
And, drink it with Sushi; like a Dynamite Roll.
