A Safe Bet: Sherry and Cheese. Together

I've always found wine and cheese pairing generalizations a little tricky, because there are always exceptions to the rule. But sherry, my goodness, what a different story. I can generalize away with sherry! And the first statement I'll make? Almost all of it is good with any kind of cheese! (For more specifics, though, read on.)

I tend to stay away from talking too much about specific wine and cheese pairings here. Because although I love the subject and have participated in numerous tastings, I find it subjective and often hard to translate effectively if the pairing is reliant on specific wines and cheeses that might be tricky to source. I've talked in general terms about what to keep in mind when pairing wine and cheese, and I've discussed why they're such a satisfying duo, but that's about the extent of it — until now. Sherry and cheese — let me tell you all about it.
