Turn a Party into a Pairing
A great way to break the ice during holiday gatherings is to turn the party into
a conversational pairing of wine and cheeses, giving guests an opportunity to
meet, greet and of course, eat and be merry. FreshDirect’s Cheese Shop offers a
wealth of information to help you discover the perfect cheese for any occasion
and palette. Our cheese expert also provides useful online tips on storage,
plating, serving, cutting and grating.
In the New and Notable section of the Cheese Shop, new arrivals such as the
Artisanal Laurier Goat Cheese, a bloomy, soft-ripening goat’s milk round topped
with a bay leaf (an Artisanal Premium Cheese Exclusive), or a Lupara Mozzarella
Di Bufala, a sweet and tangy buffalo mozzarella with notes of clover and earth
and a silky almost spreadable texture, will surely please the palette. All of
FreshDirect’s 200 cheeses are selected carefully to be ripe and ready-to-eat and
are always cut to order.
For the wine, Union Square Wines and Spirits, a valued FreshDirect partner,
offers many suggestions on the perfect and affordable wine choice to make your
event or evening shine. Check out wines by region, by type or the top 10 wines
suggested for winter. With so many wines and cheese to choose from, the ideas
for pairings are endless.
