Country Switzerland |
Milk Type Cow |
Cheese Type Semi-Firm |
Wine Cabernet Sauvignon |

Vacherin Fribourgeois is a hearty and potent Swiss cow's milk cheese with a semi-soft to firm texture, depending on age. Selected by master affineur Rolf Beeler, Vacherin Frigourgeois is an "old fashioned" Vacherin with an uneven, craggly rind and harsh edges. Its taste is grassy, nutty, and with the perfume of fresh-cut hay. The flavors increase when melted, and, as such, Vacherin Fribourgeois makes an excellent fondue cheese. We recommend that you try pairing this cheese with Cabernet Sauvignon. |
