Product Details

Location

Délice de Bourgogne is produced by Fromagerie Lincet in the Burgundy region of France.

Tasting

A rich and full-flavoured triple-cream cheese made by adding crème fraîche to full-fat cow’s milk. It features a white, bloomy rind with a mushroomy aroma that contrasts beautifully with the buttery and tangy notes of the cheese. The texture is smooth, velvety, and melt-in-the-mouth.

Pairing

Pair Délice de Bourgogne with thyme-infused honey to enhance its rich and tangy profile. This cheese is best enjoyed when it is running off your plate, similar to the incredible British cheese Bix. 

This cheese pairs wonderfully with sparkling wines produced using the Charmat method like Prosecco, which feature larger bubbles and fruit-driven flavours. The combination of fruit and cream creates a delicious harmony that complements the cheese’s richness. Additionally, a rosé with strawberry notes enhances the experience, as its bubbles and high acidity cut through the ultra-creamy texture, providing a balanced and refreshing palate.
