Line rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper. Place pie crust on floured work surface. Using 1 1/2- to 1 3/4-inch cookie cutter or biscuit cutter dipped in flour, cut out 24 rounds; transfer to prepared sheet, spacing 1/2 inch apart. Place in freezer until dough is firm, about 30 minutes. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover; keep frozen. Toss zucchini with 1 teaspoon salt in medium bowl. Let stand 15 minutes. Drain and pat dry. Place zucchini in another medium bowl; toss with 2 tablespoons olive oil and thyme. Sprinkle zucchini with pepper. Preheat oven to 400°F. Spread goat cheese generously over each frozen dough round. Fold 3 to 4 zucchini slices in half and place in concentric circle atop 1 dough round, creating flower-like pattern. Repeat with remaining zucchini and dough (reserve any remaining zucchini for another use). Sprinkle with Parmesan. Bake until crusts are light golden, about 20 minutes. Transfer to platter. Drizzle lightly with additional olive oil. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Remove the puff pastry from the package and let thaw at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or until no longer frozen but still cool. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic, and cook 5 minutes, or until the onion is slightly tender. Stir in the zucchini and saute just until it begins to soften, about 5 minutes. Mix in the drained tomatoes and raise the heat to medium-high. Cook, stirring often, until the zucchini is tender but not mushy and the juices have evaporated. Let cool. Lightly butter a dark-colored 9-inch tart pan with a removable rim or a glass pie plate. On a lightly floured surface, roll the puff pastry into an 11-inch square. Fit it into the tart pan or pie plate. Trim off the overhanging pieces of pastry with scissors. Refrigerate the crust, uncovered, for 15 minutes, or up to 8 hours, covered. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Beat the eggs in a large bowl. Stir in the cheese, salt, pepper, and cooled vegetables. Spoon the mixture into the tart pan. Bake 25 to 30 minutes, or until the pastry is brown and a knife inserted in the center of the tart comes out clean. Remove the outer rim of the tart pan. Let the tart cool on a wire rack for 20 minutes before slicing. It is best to serve this tart very warm rather than piping hot.

In the bowl of a food processor, mix flour, cornmeal, sugar, and salt until combined. Add butter and pulse just until mixture resembles small gravel. Stream in 1/3 cup water while pulsing. Add more, if necessary, until mixture just starts to come together. Turn out onto a clean work surface and form into a disk. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate at least 1 hour. Preheat oven to 350°. Dust work surface lightly with flour and roll out dough to 1/8-inch thick. Transfer dough to tart pan and press dough evenly up sides and onto the bottom of a pan. Trim edges with a knife. Prick with a fork several times (this helps prevent air bubbles). Line with foil or parchment paper, leaving some overhang. Place on a baking sheet and fill with pie weights and bake until crust is dry around edges, about 25 minutes. Remove parchment and weights. Return to oven and bake until crust is golden, about ten more minutes. Let cool. Meanwhile, heat olive oil in large skillet over medium-low heat. Sauté onion until soft and translucent, about 10 minutes. Add thyme and garlic and stir. Add corn and season with 1/2-teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook 5 minutes more until corn is bright. Remove from heat. In the bowl of the food processor, mix cream cheese, goat cheese, eggs, and remaining 1/2-teaspoon salt and 1/4-teaspoon pepper until smooth. Increase oven temperature to 375°. Spread corn mixture over the cooled crust into an even layer. Top with cheese mixture and spread into an even layer that meets all the crust’s edges. Layer zucchini on top in a slightly overlapping pattern until completely covered. Drizzle olive oil over all the zucchini (this will help them to brown in the oven). Bake until slightly puffed and zucchini is golden, about 35 minutes. Allow to cool and remove from pan sides. Garnish with chives. Match this mouthwatering Zucchini, Corn and Goat Cheese Tart recipe with the bright acidity, stone fruit, and tropical flavors in the Tom Gore Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc.
