(French) Cheese Plate - need help picking out

I am entertaining this weekend and will be doing a cheese plate.  I want it to be a traditional french cheese plate with three different cheeses.  However, not sure which ones to pick.  I was thinking of getting some sort of soft cheese, a hard cheese and maybe a blue cheese.  Any thoughts?  I do have a great super market that has a variety of cheeses, so if you have a specific cheese to recommend I would also appreciate your suggestions.

  • Boucheron/Bucheron is always a crowd pleaser!

  • Blue usually makes me think of an american cheese plate, but I think that I just always get the Maytag.  I would definitely go with a brie, a creamy goats milk cheese such as a crottin maitre seguin, a morbier comte, and maybe a langres.

  • I just watched a good eats on cheese and serving it. If you can find it on you tube, it might be helpful.

    From what I remember, he said when you serve cheese, you need to serve:

    3 of the same kind, but different ages

    3 from the same region or

    3 of ...darn it. I can't remember.
