(Saute the garlic and shallot in the butter in a large sauté pan, once soft deglaze with the white wine, let reduce by half, then puree in the blender, add back to the pan and add the flour, cook for 1 minute, then add the cream and season with the salt and pepper, once it begins to thicken add the cheese and remove from heat.
