Persille de Beaujolais

This product is not currently available.

When we're determined to convey the charm of blue cheese to non-believers, Persille de Beaujolais makes a cameo on our cheese boards. Its gorgeous rind, the product of cave-aging in the French Alps, is as golden and mottled as a Klimt painting. More subtle than many blue cheeses, it is buttery and earthy, with foresty mushroom and juniper notes. This blue is a fine partner" as its name suggests" for a light Beaujolais.

Here's what you get:

  • 1/2 lb of Persille de Beaujolais cheese

Parsley Blue

Persille, French for “parsleyed,” describes the blue-grey mold that prettily spirals through this sweet cow’s milk cheese from the caves of the Rhone-Alpes. This beautiful, non-threatening blue would be delicious any season, and looks particularly gorgeous on a serving tray alongside figs, apricots, and little glasses of Beaujolais or sweet, pungent Sauternes.
