# Wine Pairing Infographics This Infographic by Cabot Cheese Shows the Perfect Wine & Cheese Pairing By Megan Facciuolo | Published 2014-04-22 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wine-and-cheese-pairing References: [designtaxi](http://designtaxi.com/news/365171/Infographic-A-Visual-Guide-To-Pairing-Wine-Cheese/) & [cabotcheese.coop](http://www.cabotcheese.coop/) Wine and cheese pairing is a classic match. Certain cheeses bring out distinctive flavors in certain wines. However, pairing up the right type of cheese with the right type of wine to create the most promising flavor explosion in your mouth can be a tricky task. Luckily, [Cabot Cheese](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-perfect-pairing) designed a helpful chart that depicts what wines and cheeses are best suited for one another. For example, a medium to full-bodied Merlot pairs best with a tangy or sharp-tasting cheese like a garlic and herb cheese. Likewise, an off-dry Moscato wine blends best with a spicy cheese because the spice offsets the sweetness. The guide pairs almost every type of wine and categorizes them into [red, white and pink wine sections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wine-personality-test). You will be a wine and cheese connoisseur in no time. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.2/10 - Popularity: 22% | Activity: 35% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Wine and Cheese Pairing Infographics:** Cabot Cheese has created a helpful chart that pairs almost every type of wine and categorizes them into red, white and pink wine sections. - **Personalized Wine and Cheese Pairing:** AI-powered apps that take into account personal preferences, taste, and diet can recommend personalized wine and cheese pairings for individuals. - **Virtual Wine and Cheese Tasting Events:** Online wine and cheese pairing events that allow participants to taste and discuss wine and cheese pairings virtually are gaining popularity. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Food and Beverage:** Food companies can partner with wine or cheese makers to create online wine and cheese pairing events or create personalized wine and cheese pairing apps. - **Hospitality and Tourism:** Hotels and restaurants can offer wine and cheese pairing experiences to guests either in-person or virtually. - **Event Planning and Management:** Event planners can create virtual wine and cheese tasting and pairing events for corporate or private clients. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Fruity Cabernet-Infused Cheeses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ubriaco-al-cabernet.md) - [Cheese Pairing Beers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-perfect-pairing.md) - [Holiday-Focused Wine Pairings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seasonal-guide-to-wine-pairing.md) - [Sommelier-Approved Charcuterie Boards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wine-pairing-board.md) - [Wine-Infused Sauces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wine-infused-sauce.md) - [Wine-Soaked Goat Cheeses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-drunken-goat.md) - [High-Level Wine-Pairing Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tasting-and-pairing-concept.md) - [Pizza-Friendly Red Wines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dominos-red-blend.md) - [Candy-Paired Wine Tastings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candy-and-wine.md)
