CLASSIC WINE PAIRING
Firmer cheeses call for a red wine – whose tannic structure is the perfect foil for the protein and also for the chocolate in this recipe. Something fruity like a Bordeaux Rouge or Bordeaux Superieur make for perfect partners.
ORIGINAL WINE PAIRING
A dry white from Pessac Léognan. The richer flavors and texture of these wines layered with toasty oak notes provide a delicious yet refreshing lively contrast to the cheese and chocolate duo.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 Saint André or equivalent (soft cow's milk cheese in a crust)
- 20 chocolate chips
- 6 long rectangular crackers
Preparation
Gather chocolate chips in a bowl
Place the cheese slices on the crackers, then top with the chocolate chips
