Comté cheese pairs well with a variety of wines, including dry Arbois whites, Vin Jaune, dry(ish) sherry, Champagne, aged or mature white Burgundy, Nebbiolo, Pinot Noir, Rioja, red Bordeaux blend, Gamay Noir, Bordeaux, Viognier, and Jura.

The best pairing depends on the age and flavour profile of the cheese. For example, a fruity Comté with apricot and citrus aromas pairs well with a rich and fruity white wine, while a 15-month-old winter Comté pairs well with biodynamic Champagne.

A general rule of thumb is to pair Comté with a rich, dry white wine or a light to medium-bodied red wine with soft tannins.
