Alsace wine and cheese

Munster with Gewurztraminer

Local tradition

French Wikipedia and Je Visite Alsace both give this match: Gewurztraminer's aromatic power and full body stand up to the strength of the cheese, and its richness softens the pungent washed rind.

Bargkass with Dry Riesling

Our pick

Bargkass is mild and low in salt, tasting of hay and fresh grass. A dry Riesling's acidity lifts the supple, melting paste without covering its gentle summer-pasture flavour.

Cœur de Massif with Pinot Gris

Our pick

Cœur de Massif is a mild, supple, creamy cooked-pressed cheese. A Pinot Gris with some body, dry or lightly off-dry, matches that weight and creaminess without drowning the paste's gentle flavour.
