La Ronde des Fromages ★ 4.0

Neighbourhood cheese shop that gives advice, sometimes with cheese and wine pairing ideas, and sells organic yoghurt, rice pudding and raw milk direct from a Lot-et-Garonne farm.
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.
