Affidélice
(ah-FEE-dell-EES)
Some cheeses from Burgundy area were washed, in the past, with
white wine, and that gave them a very rich aromatic perfume.
The cheese dairy Berthaut uses Chablis, a prestigious white wine
from Burgundy, to complete the manufacturing process of its
Affidélice Berthaut. These regular washings with Chablis
gradually stimulate its yellow-orangish ferments, nestled in the
heart of the cheese, which clothes itself slowly in a satin
flora.
Near maturity, the pigmentation becomes stronger, revealing the
full development and harmony of the cheese, as well as the
flavors of the Burgundian soils.
