Cheese

What cheese goes best with Merlot? Merlot and even some Merlot-blends pair well with hard cheeses like Cheddar, Manchego, Parmigiano-Reggiano, Grana Padano and Pecorino. These cheeses have salty and savoury flavours that pair wonderfully with medium- and full-bodied red wines. Merlot’s position in the middle of the red wine spectrum makes it possible to pair it with different types of cheese, including semi-soft cheeses like Gruyère, Comté, Emmenthaland Gouda.
