How to Pair Cheese With Sparkling Wine

Whether it is Champagne from France, Cava from Spain, a sparkling wine from the Soho NYC winebars, or Prosecco from Italy, pairing decadent cheese with elegant bubbly is one of life's pleasures. You don't need to have a good wine-and-cheese pairing only for New Year's Eve or another special occasion—it's ideal for a regular Friday night, simply to celebrate the end of the workweek.

A good French Wine restaurant, like of St Tropez can often help point you in the right direction when it comes to picking a cheese to serve with wine, as can a cheesemonger. Below is the list of cheese that goes super well with sparkling wine. Note it down away!

Triple Creme

Luxurious cheese meets luxurious wine. Triple Crème (or double cream) cheeses are rich and buttery with a whipped texture and fairly mild flavor, similar to brie cheese. The much butterfat content in triple crème cheeses that coats your mouth in creamy goodness is balanced out by the refreshing bubbles in sparkling wine. Look for Triple Crème cheeses such as, Brillat-Savarin, Saint Andre, Mt. Tam and Pierre-Robert, or a double cream like Cremont.

Also, Triple crème pairs best with Prosecco, particularly dry versions, as well as French cremants, such as rose Cremantd'Alsace. The acidity in dry wines cuts through the creaminess of triple crème cheeses.

Camembert

This genre cheese has a seductive but not overpowering—unless it's super ripe—flavor. The woodsy, mushroomy flavor of Camembert pairs nicely with the yeasty and fruity flavors in sparkling wine, particularly Champagne. Similar kind cheeses that are not technically Camembert but share some of its qualities also pair well with sparkling wine. Look for Pave d'auge or Roucoulons.

Parmigiano Reggiano

This kind of cheese is more acidic than creamy and more dense than airy. It is found at the same region at Lambrusco, a red sparkling wine, and the two just seem to work together. The Parmigiano Reggiano is different than standard Parmesan, which isn't made in the European Union, so make sure you're picking out the right kind.
