RIC'S PICKS WINE + CHEESE

From peanut butter and jelly, to spaghetti and meatballs, or cookies and milk – some duos are so iconic that you can’t imagine one without the other. And so it goes with wine and cheese. Both so delicious on their own but behold the magic when they meet up on the palate. It is generally accepted that stronger wines go with stronger tasting cheeses – like Port with Bleu for example. But pairings are subjective– just take your time and make your own rules. To get started, check out Wisconsin Milk Marketing Board’s “Cheese Cupid” online tool and pairing app – available at cheesecupid.com. We also asked Ric Joranlien of Hawk’s Mill Winery near Browntown to share some ideas on pairing his wine with some of Green County’s favorite types of cheese. Grand Cru Surchoix + Doodle White A lightly oaked Chardonnay with a clean style finish - the perfect contrast for a nutty, tangy cheese. Grand Cru Surchoix, crafted at Emmi Roth USA in Monroe, was named best cheese on the planet at the 2016 World Championship Cheese Competition. Muenster + Peachy Keen Fruity notes of fresh peaches – complimented by a creamy and mild, yet savory cheese called Muenster. From Silver Lewis Cooperative – one of Wisconsin’s oldest cheese factories, near Monticello. Emmentaler + Purple Martin A sweet red bursting with flavors of Concord grapes – paired up with an Old World Swiss classic that is nutty and buttery with a touch of sweetness. Emmentaler is produced by Edelweiss Creamery, Monticello, in giant wheels weighing in at around 180 pounds.
