Vacherin Mont d'Or
Product out of season from April till September
Vacherin Mont d’Or is nothing short of superb, but sadly only available between September and April. Meltingly soft, nutty and buttery, it also has a lovely aromatic resin flavour from its coat of Alpen spruce bark.
Made from the milk of mountain cows, Vacherin Mont d’Or is best when you have to eat it with a spoon. Keep it in its spruce wrapping for the best flavour and only share it with your very favourite people. You can warm it with white wine and garlic for a fondue – that is the food of the gods.
What with? Vacherin Mont d’Or has gained the reputation of being a bit of a Party and Celebartion cheese and is often bought in combination with Champagne and special wines. A nice occasion for something as classy as our Chateau Cissac 2000 or Chateauneuf-du-Pape Domaine Nalys.
