Red Lacaune

Artisanal CheeseClock Pairing Tool

The Red Lacaune gets its name from the sheep breed that produces its milk. This is the same milk that is used to make Roquefort. Red Laucane is a soft cheese with a washed rind and a delicate paste. Its relatively mild flavor earned this cheese a gold medal in Paris last year. The cheese develops a buttery, sweeter flavor with age. One piece weighs approximatively 14oz. The Red Laucane will pair well with many wines; but you might especially enjoy it with a Chenin Blanc, a Rieling, or a Merlot or Zinfandel for a red.
