When it comes to organizing a professional event, such as speeches, conferences, celebrations, openings, book launches, product launches, premieres, festivals or art exhibitions, the cheese platter with wine is the ideal choice. A delicate combination of cheeses and wines offers a refined and light taste proposal for your invitation.
So, let’s see below how the ideal selection of the cheese & wine menu will perfectly complement your own professional event, ensuring an unforgettable and pleasant experience for all participants.
Cheese platters and wines suitable for the occasion
The occasion as well as the season in which your corporate event takes place plays an important role in choosing the right flavor combinations. It is therefore essential to always consider seasonal flavors when planning a menu. For example, during the winter months, you can give more weight to a cheese platter with a variety of charcuterie and cheeses – mainly yellow hard cheeses – with dips and chutneys with spices, which are perfectly combined with strong red wines of high acidity thus enhancing the intense flavors. In contrast, as for the summer menus which we want to be lighter, cheeses and fresh julienned vegetables, with yogurt dips and fruit chutneys, are excellently accompanied by white wines that are refreshing and not too heavy.
For the wine, don’t bet on just one color
Of course, a cheese & wine menu with cheese platter and cold cuts should include white and red wine. However, it is not certain that all your guests are lovers of strong red wines. So, if you want to satisfy different tastes without having too many different wine labels on your menu, then we recommend medium-bodied red wines as an option that can satisfy most.
Of course, Intercatering offers you excellent choices of Greek wines that can suit any occasion. In addition to our wine range, we have added the white ‘Silent Grace’ and the red ‘Nu’, two delectable wines that we have created for your events and can accompany the cheese platter menu at your next business event.
Food & Wine pairing in harmony
Enhance the atmosphere of your event by choosing wines, cheese and charcuterie platters and other delicious bouchées that will perfectly match the theme and character of the event. In general, when we talk about professional events of high quality and aesthetics, red wines, especially those rich in tannins, have their rightful place. In fact, when accompanied with cold meats such as bresaola pouches filled with French chèvre cheese mousse or crostini with prosciutto and other rich and heavy flavors, they highlight their delicate taste even more.
If you are hosting an outdoor event, such as an outdoor book launch for example, we would suggest a cheese & wine menu with a Greek cheese platter and bouchées such as smoked salmon rolls wrapped in arugula leaves, hummus with toasted Arabic breads, mozzarella bocconcini and basil pesto to name a few, which go great with lighter, cool white wines for a more comfortable and relaxed atmosphere.
The right Cheese platter and wines is also a matter of price
Making your business event a success is, among other things, a matter of cost. So as these events often include a significant number of guests, when choosing the cheese & wine menu, you should also consider the available budget. At Intercatering we can help you by planning together a menu with your favourite cheese platter that will ensure that your guests will enjoy quality and excellent tastes, without straining your budget. So having the know-how and experience, you can be sure that we will shape the menu that will perfectly match the style and needs of your business event.
