What to pour with their cheese

Soumaintrain with Chablis (Chardonnay)

Local tradition

Soumaintrain and Chablis share the Yonne. A regional produce site pairs a Chablis or Petit Chablis with younger cheeses and a premier cru with the most pronounced ones, the wine's acidity against the brine rind and milky paste.
