Many of these will do very well with a not too oaky Chardonnay - this is
being explicit, but I am particularly fond of a Ladoix Clou dŽOrges with
Emmenthaler and such-like.

Is this where we mention Amarone with Parmigiano?

Possibly, but try a Gewurztraminer with Munster, OR Epoisse, OR, for that
matter, a Reblochon.

As somebody pointed out, the main thing is to have fun, right?
