Cheese with Domaine Jean-Paul Thevenet wines
Cervelle de canut
Our pick French Wikipedia suggests a white wine, Chardonnay, with it. Beaujolais Blanc is Chardonnay, and a fresh, high-acid bottle answers the shallot, herbs and vinegar of the dish.

Saint-Félicien
Our pick A creamy, lightly salted cow's milk cheese under a white bloom, on the Lyon cheese board according to French Wikipedia. Beaujolais Blanc, a fresh Chardonnay with high acidity, cuts the richness of the melting paste.
Beaujolais Blanc, Beaujolais: Beaujolais Blanc
Rigotte de Condrieu
Our pick INAO's own match is the white wine of the neighbouring Condrieu AOP, which is not a Beaujolais wine. For a Beaujolais glass, a crisp, high-acid Beaujolais Blanc suits the hazelnut and whey notes of a small goat's cheese.
