Let’s see…havarti and something sharper with crackers and bagel chips. Olives. A fruit platter. Hmm maybe cards to rate the wines. What else do I need?
If you can get some kind of cracker that's made with stone ground flour so that you get a better sense of the grain that might add to the experience.
Some meats for the salty flavor.
More than just two cheeses if you've got 6 wines.
As to wines, I would only bother with whites and reds. Chill the white, but keep the red a cool, room temperature. Don't bother with rose wine or bubbly. They don't fit what you're doing.
