This cheese is in it
Cheese 1: Tomme du Ferrin
Raw cow's milk cheese from the north of France
The Vinage farm, which produces this beautiful Saint Paulin-type Tomme, is part of the new farms that combine tradition and modernity. The cheese is a pressed, uncooked dough with a washed rind. The consistency is soft and has a mild taste. We let it mature a bit in our cellar so that it becomes even more aromatic.
Cheese 2: Coeur de Neufchâtel
Raw cow's milk from the Haute Normandy region
This very popular heart-shaped cheese was long ago offered to English soldiers by Norman peasant women. We love its white moldy bark and chalky interior. It tastes aromatic and nutty. This cheese goes very well with the two wines included in your box.
Cheese 3: Mountain cheese 21 months
Raw cow's milk from Austria
Our cheese master Sébastien met Anton at Cheese Berlin and then in his maturing cellars in the heart of Vienna. Anton spends the whole summer on the Alp to make his cheese. They are then brought down to Vienna, where they can mature in the fourth basement of a house. There is also a wine warehouse here, so a perfect match between the wine and the cheese. This mountain cheese matures there for 21 months.
Cheese 4: Roquefort
Raw milk cheese from sheep from the Aveyron region
Lovers' Cheese is a monument to French cheese. It is always made in the limestone caves of the same name. Its taste is incomparable, powerful and creamy at the same time. You can tell that it comes from the plateaus. Don't hesitate to try it with an old rum that is a little sweet or with a sweet wine. Simply delicious, a gastronomic wonder.
This wine is included
Chardonnay Vignes de l'arques
White wine from the Pays D'Oc region
Grapes: Chardonnay
Winemaker: Les Vignes de L'Arques
In this beautiful region in the south of France, Sébastien received his first training in viticulture with the Fabre family. The vines of L'Arques (AOP Duché d'Uzes) bring us very beautiful aromatic wines. Together we will discover a grape variety, Chardonnay, which reveals its fruity and floral side in the Pays D'Oc. This wine goes wonderfully with cheese because it reveals its aromas.
Cheverny Rouge (only if ordered)
Red wine from the Loire region
Grapes: Pinot Noir and Gamay
Winemaker: Domaine Maison
If you're a fan of comic stories, then you'll definitely recognize the castle that inspired Hergé's Tintin adventures. But let's talk about wine, we have a very nice marriage of Pinot Noir and Gamay that offers us a light and fruity wine. Quite gourmet to enjoy in the mouth with a slightly peppery finish.
There was this sausage
Boudin black du pays basque
Pork sausage from the Basque Country
Manufacturer: Oteiza
You don't see blood sausage like this very often. In the Basque Country it is made with a puree of onions, garlic, fresh leeks and thyme flowers. Add a little allspice to underline the unique taste.
You can eat the black pudding cold on toast or warm with apples or potatoes.
