    Dear Moreta

    sorry for the late reply as I was abroad for a two weeks. Regarding the wine, Fendant as well as Epesses are both Chasselas which according to the "The Full Wiki" are vinified to be a full, dry and fruity white wines.

    Regarding the cheese, according to an article in the Sydney Morning Herald of the October 9, 2009 (http://www.smh.com.au/lifestyle/homestyle/fonduementally-swiss-20091009-gpjb.html) the Swiss cheese can be substituted in Fondue with fontina or other good melting cheeses, but I have not tried it on this recipe. According to the world cheese book (DK Publishing, 2008, p. 245), the Vacherin Fribourgeois tastes supple and nutty with a long, tender aftertaste of alpine flowers and freshly cut hay. They also mention that the flavors intensify when the cheese is melted.

    I hope you can find the right cheese and you will enjoy this recipe as much as I do.

     

    Best regards

    Could you comment on the wine and cheese. Is the wine a dry or sweet wine and what would you suggest as a local Australian cheese. I do not recognise that one.
