Cheese with Domaine Ostertag wines

Munster Local tradition French Wikipedia says Munster goes with Riesling, though above all with Gewurztraminer. A dry Riesling's acidity cuts the creamy paste and the pungency of the washed rind without adding sweetness. Riesling, Alsace: Ostertag Muenchberg Riesling · Ostertag Heissenberg Riesling
Cœur de Massif 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. Pinot Gris, Alsace: Ostertag Fronholz Pinot Gris
Bibeleskäs Our pick Garlic, shallot and chives in a cold fresh cheese call for a dry white with gentle fruit and fresh acidity. Pinot Blanc keeps the herbs and the boiled potatoes in front rather than competing with them. Pinot Blanc, Alsace: Ostertag Hengst Pinot Blanc
Bargkass 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. Dry Riesling, Alsace: Ostertag Muenchberg Riesling · Ostertag Heissenberg Riesling
