What wine goes with goat's cheese?
Goat's cheese and Sauvignon Blanc from the Loire belong together. Around Sancerre and Chavignol both the wine and the cheese are made: Crottin de Chavignol comes from the same village as much of the Sancerre. The fresh acidity and herbal notes of the wine suit the tangy, creamy cheese. A Sauvignon Blanc from another country works too, as long as it is dry and fresh. With warm goat's cheese and honey, a wine with a little more body works well.
