Wine and Cheese Map, the site that gives us the right wine-cheese pairings

Whether you invite your friends, the chosen one of your heart or worse, your boss to have dinner at home, the choice of dishes can quickly turn into a headache (especially if one of the guests is a fan good food). So, to avoid missteps, why not opt ​​for a nice evening of wine, cheese and sweet pleasures (French style)? Only here, we still have to find the cheeses that will match perfectly with our bottles... To help us, the free website Wine and Cheese Map offers a selection of the best possible combinations. Convenient!

A simple and accessible site

How it works ? To find the best (and most original) combinations, just enter the name of a wine, or a cheese, and click on enter. On the screen is then displayed a “map” of possible matches! And to facilitate the search, it is advisable to deselect some filters by clicking on the icon at the top right. For example, if you are not a fan of (really) very strong cheeses, you will deselect the “hard” category, to be sure not to have any unpleasant surprises on your plate. Thus, thanks to Wine and Cheese Map , we learn for example that black goat cheese will go perfectly with Tokay Pinot Gris, or California Zinfandel; as for the Chardonnay, it is accompanied by camembert or triple cream (well, there, you should not be afraid of the calories…)! And to help the less connoisseurs among us, the site displays red wines in red, and white wines, white wines (logical). Only downside, the features are only displayed in English.

All that remains is to test!
