The pairing of wines and cheese has long been a regionalized dish. Many wine-producing countries pair their regional wines with local cheeses, many of whom pair their regional wines with local cheeses. For example, the French Brie region is known for its tannic wine varietals. Their Beaujolais matches well with the Brie produced in the area. However, that doesn't stop a sommelier or cheesemonger from making other suggestions to their customers.

Although regional preferences may take precedence in specific areas, don't hesitate to accept a sommelier's proposal. Sommeliers have a sophisticated palate.. They lead those new to wine tasting through the basics through experience and expertise. In addition, sommeliers hold sophisticated wine enthusiasts up to date on the most recent varietals.

The cheesemonger's knowledge is equally important. They've developed a knowledge base that has expanded beyond mold and yeast. Cheesemongers stay up-to-date on the latest cooking and wine trends because cheese tops more than a burger or a salad. Their highly developed palate leads cheese and wine enthusiasts to the best pairings and satisfying results.
