Toss cheeses with cornstarch until coated. Rub garlic on bottom and side of heavy saucepan or skillet and add wine. Heat over low heat just until bubbles rise to surface (wine should not boil). Stir in lemon juice.
Gradually add cheeses, about 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly with wooden spoon over low heat until cheeses are melted. Stir in kirsch, salt and white pepper.
