Festive opening hours

Colombier

In the heart of Burgundy, the Nauwinck family, farmers who raise Montbéliarde cows, passionately carry on an exceptional cheesemaking tradition. Their Colombier, a soft cheese with a bloomy rind, is made from rich, fragrant raw milk from their own free-range herd.

This cheese stands out for its generous round shape, reminiscent of the dovecotes that grace the Burgundian countryside. Its naturally bloomy rind is covered in a soft, velvety down, slightly wrinkled and of a dazzling white.

Beneath this delicate coat, the paste reveals a texture that is both dense and creamy: the heart remains firm, while the outer edge gives way to a melting, luscious smoothness. On the palate, the Colombier shows a slight acidity, which fades as it matures to develop subtle aromas of crème fraîche, mushroom and fresh hazelnut, with a lingering freshness.

Born of respectful farming and artisanal know-how, this cheese embodies all the authenticity and generosity of Burgundy.
