Notes

This cheese board can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator until you're ready to serve. Wrap the entire cheese board in plastic wrap before placing it in the refrigerator to store. You should wait to add the crackers on the board until you're ready to serve, as they will become stale in the refrigerator.
This board is best paired with a rośe that is made from full-bodied grapes or has an off-dry taste. Some options would include Grenache, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, or wine from the Anjou region of France.
