Preparation
This semi-firm washed-rind cheese, made from pasteurized milk and aged from rind to core, stands out with its supple, creamy texture. It develops mild, slightly tangy aromas with fruity nuances reminiscent of fermented apple, nuts, hay and fir. Le Sauvage from Cidrerie Le Somnambule, with its notes of freshly cut hay and wild strawberry, completes the pairing with a distinctly funky twist.
Other possible pairings: Aromatic and mellow sparkling wine, Fruity and vibrant white wine, Fruity and medium-body wine.
