Answer 25

A ripe Brillat-Savarin from the Bourgogne region is a soft cow’s milk cheese with a bloomy rind. It is enriched with cream, earning it a reputation as “the foie gras of cheeses”. It requires a three-week maturation period before being ready to eat. Its subtle fruity flavor is underscored by a slight acidity that fades over time. In the mouth, it develops aromas of dried fruit with oaky notes. It is a cheese that is eaten while still soft and young.
Brillat-Savarin makes an ideal accompaniment to a Crémant de Bourgogne Brut, as the acidity of the wine counters the richness of the cheese.
