Beaujolais-Villages
Beaujolais Gamay is THE versatile red for cheese boards: melted tannins respect brie, crunchy fruit wraps comté, freshness holds goat cheese. Served slightly chilled (14°C), it's the popular pairing that works on 80% of the board.
Vouvray Sec
Dry Vouvray (Chenin Blanc on Loire tuffeau) — apple, quince, light honey and beeswax with taut acidity, accompanies Loire goat cheeses, hard cheeses and bloomy-rind cheeses — the dry-white alternative to the red.
Sauternes
Sauternes remains the king pairing for the board's blues (Roquefort, Stilton, Fourme d'Ambert): its fat roundness and botrytized sweetness tame the salt of blue cheese by sweet-savory contrast. Save it for the end of the board, on blue specifically.
