The wine you would use for a meaty, cheesy charcuterie board is different from what you should choose for a vegan version. Here are some great options.

The article from Yahoo Lifestyle discusses the best wines to pair with charcuterie, emphasizing that while red wines are commonly chosen, white and sparkling wines can also complement the diverse flavors of charcuterie boards. It suggests that for a traditional pairing, a full-bodied red like Cabernet Sauvignon or Syrah works well with cured meats, while Pinot Noir offers a lighter option that still pairs nicely with the saltiness of the meats. For white wine enthusiasts, the article recommends a crisp Sauvignon Blanc or an oaky Chardonnay to balance the richness of the charcuterie. Additionally, sparkling wines such as Prosecco or Champagne are highlighted for their ability to cut through the fattiness of the meats and cleanse the palate. The article concludes by noting that the key to a successful pairing is to consider the specific flavors and textures on the charcuterie board and choose a wine that enhances those elements.
