A (adjective) selection (subject) of (preposition) cheeses (object of preposition) served (verb) with (preposition) grapes (object of preposition). For starters, 'A selection of cheeses served with grapes' is not a sentence, it is a phrase.

A sentence requires a subject and a verb. While the word 'SERVED' is usually a verb, in this case it is being used to describe the cheeses, it does not indicate any action taking place. What happened with the selection of cheeses and grapes?

If the phrase were rewritten:

'A selection of cheeses WAS served with grapes', then you would have an action.

A selection of cheeses- is the subject of the sentence.

was served- is the verb in the sentence, WAS is an auxiliary verb.

with grapes - A prepositional phrase modifying the subject.
