Fondue is meant to be shared with loved ones. Fontina and swiss cheeses mingle with wine; and when melted, they create a lovely, gooey sauce. Serving it with unique dippers is fun, too!

Combine 1 cup wine and garlic in a large saucepan. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low; simmer. Remove garlic.
Gradually whisk in fontina and swiss, a 1/4 cup at a time, until melted. (Do not boil.) Combine cornstarch and remaining wine in a small bowl until smooth; whisk into cheese mixture. Cook and whisk until mixture is smooth and thick. Add pancetta; whisk to combine.
Transfer to a fondue pot. Heat on low to keep warm. Serve with dippers.
Cheesemonger Tip:
The tradition of making swiss cheese in 200-pound wheels began in the Middle Ages when the Swiss government taxed cheesemakers on the number of pieces they produced rather than total weight.
