Washed-rind cheeses

Washed-rind cheeses have a distinctive funk and robust flavor profile that demands beverages with enough character to stand up to them. The aromatic intensity of Gewürztraminer and the acidity of Riesling cut through the richness, while Belgian-style beers complement the earthy, savory qualities with their own complex yeast-driven flavors.
