Gorgonzola Dolce and fig spread is a perfect addition to any cheese plate. The dolce is a younger, sweeter and milder version of the pungent gorgonzola and is absolutely delicious with the sweet, rich fig spread and a nutty, refreshing Prosecco. Prosecco is a sparkling wine from the Veneto area in Northeast Italy. It’s made from the Glera grape. This is an affordable everyday dry sparkling wine that pairs exceptionally well with the gorgonzola & fig spread and an array of appetizers. You can even take it up a notch and add some prosciutto to this pairing. Take a cracker and spread the gorgonzola, a slice of prosciutto and top it off with a little dollop of Dalmatia fig spread and you have an awesome treat!

The fig spread and salty gorgonzola make the fruit notes in the wine come to life and the vibrant acidity in the Prosecco works in concert with the creaminess of the cheese.  In general, Prosecco is a refreshing, dry sparkling wine with vibrant citrus, orchard and stone fruit aromas along with floral notes and a hint of nuttiness, honey and fresh baked breads.  Here are some great options under $20.
