What to pour with their cheese

Pélardon with Picpoul de Pinet

Our pick

accords-mets-vins.fr suggests Picpoul de Pinet for a more aged Pélardon, saying its saline finish picks up the cheese's lactic, slightly hazelnut notes. Raised in tank with no oak, Picpoul is dry and high in acidity, so it cleans the paste without covering the goat's milk.

Pélardon with Supple Languedoc red, unoaked or in old wood

Our pick

accords-mets-vins.fr advises light, low-tannin reds for Pélardon, such as a young Saint-Chinian or a lightly extracted Faugères, and warns that a powerful or oaky red crushes it. A medium-bodied red raised mostly in concrete or old wood, with supple tannin, keeps the goat's milk in view.

Pélardon with Dry Languedoc rosé

Our pick

A young Pélardon is lactic and lightly hazelnut. A dry rosé from stainless steel, with no oak, has the acidity to freshen the palate and enough red-fruit body that the goat cheese is not left tasting chalky.
