Thank you!

Camembert
Gorgonzola
Parmigiano-Reggiano
1 loaf walnut bread or other dark, dense bread

Cheese Plate tips:
Lavender Honey drizzled over pungent Stilton or creamy Point Reyes blue cheese is surprisingly good match.
The sweetness of biscotti with crumbly cheese and red wines is a wonderful combination of flavors.

Serve candied almonds or other candied nuts for an accompaniment with a tightening of salty, sweet.

The most elegant, you can serve with a cheese plate was a bowl full of warm pistachios ... to occupy hand and mouth when you're sitting around the table talking with friends and finishing that great bottle of red wine.

If serving Parmigiano-Reggiano, drizzle a few drops of aged balsamic vinegar for extra flavor.

Set out cheese them 1 hour before serving, cheeses are best eaten at room temperature.

Serve the cheeses on a round tray or wheel, the organization clockwise from 6:00 in the sweetest to the strongest cheeses.

Serve the sweet accompaniments, such as figs with strong cheeses for flavor dolce agreement.

Serve strong cheese with lemon and orange slices for extra flavor.

The wine pairings:
In general, the cheeses you choose should follow the flavors and intensity of the wine. If you drink a big intense wine, choose a big cheese intense. For example, if you chose Petit Sirah (usually big, deep - colorful and full bodied), choose a Gorgonzola, cream, cheese, cow's milk Italian classic comes in blue mountain (aged) and Dolce (sweet) varieties.

If you are serving a Sauvignon Blanc (which tends to be bright and light - medium bodied), pair it with goat cheese, light and deliciously tangy - very spicy. In addition, the higher your wine is acidic, the higher the fat content of cheese should be (in general).

A young, fresh goat cheese, goes well with Robert Mondavi Winery Reserve White smoke or Luna Pinot Grigio. Or try, St. Paulin (also known as Port Hi), good company for fruit and light wine.

Buy a well-aged brie, camembert or Cambozola for Chardonnay. This wine has the acid to take the creamier, "fatty" cheeses.

For Reggiano and Blue try my old vine Zinfandel Petit Sirah.

Of course, contrasting flavors can also guide you to the big plate of cheese combinations, so from time to time I like to serve a crisp, fruity wine, sparkling Reggiano! What a contrast for the mouth!

With many varieties to choose from, cheese company with two sweet and savory ingredients can serve the cheese ultimate creative and colorful celebration every time. Have fun and experiment with your favorite flavors!

With cheese and wine, I would like to add softness and texture and present them together on a serving platter memorable.

Fresh Vegetable Platter with Olive Oil Dip
Pinzimonio

Pinzimonio means "combination" and the dish consists of an assortment of the freshest vegetables available and a little olive oil of good quality.

An agreement of crunchy carrots, radishes and spring onions would be great, as would tender young artichokes and fennel bulbs fragrant.
Most vegetables are served raw, but things like green beans, blanched are better, and some root vegetables such as beets and potatoes should be cooked thoroughly.
The ham and bread in this recipe are not traditional, but they add much.
