Marché du quai des Chartrons ★ 4.0
Riverside market of about 70 stalls on the Garonne quay. The Fromagerie du Roy, a Landiras goat and cow dairy, lists a raw-milk cheese stall here on Sunday mornings.
Visit of a family estate in the Entre-Deux-Mers, 15 minutes by car from central Bordeaux: a 45-minute tour of the property, then four of its wines tasted alongside four artisan cheeses.
These Merlot-led Fronsac and Canon-Fronsac reds have medium body and tannin with cherry or blackcurrant fruit. The cheese has a firm, melting paste that INAO describes as salted without excess, with hazelnut often present.
These Pauillac reds are Cabernet Sauvignon-led, full-bodied, with firm to high tannin, high acidity and blackcurrant fruit. INAO describes the cheese as firm and melting, salted without excess. Its syndicate suggests structured reds, naming South-West ones such as Madiran.
These Sauternes are sweet, high in acidity and full-bodied, with apricot and honey notes. INAO calls the cheese salted without excess and often hazelnutty, so sweet fruit meets salt and nut.
