Tasting tips

Pairing cheese and wine

Cheeses of France generally goes well with the wines of the region where they come from. In the case of Deauville, we recommend a red wine from Burgundy such as a Volnay, a Chambolle-Musigny or a Nuits-Saint-Georges.

Our Deauville

There the prairies are very rich. The grass is thick. And the cows living in the area will give the best quality milk for cheese production.
