Rub the inside of a heavy-bottomed pot or fondue pot with the cut sides of the garlic clove. Discard the garlic.
Pour the white wine into the pot and heat gently over medium heat until it reaches a simmer. Do not let it boil.
In a small bowl, toss the grated Gruyère, Emmental, and Parmesan cheeses with the cornstarch to coat evenly. This step helps prevent the fondue from breaking as it melts.
Gradually add the cheese mixture to the simmering wine, one handful at a time. Stir constantly with a wooden spoon or silicone spatula in a figure-eight motion until the cheese melts and the mixture becomes smooth.
Stir in the lemon juice, nutmeg, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Reduce heat to low and keep the fondue warm while serving. Use a fondue stand with a burner if you have one to maintain the temperature at the table.
Serve immediately with bread cubes, vegetables, or fruits of your choice for dipping. Enjoy!
