The Meule de Léman is our brand new cheese from the Gruyères family. It is a pressed dough cooked with raw cow’s milk made at the foot of the Léman Alps, in the heart of the Vallé Verte, in our fruit cooperative of Bogève. The long maturing period of 10 to 12 months is reserved for the grinding wheels made in the summer, whose dough is yellow and more aromatic.The golden crust is fine, straw-coloured, and the melting and dense paste ranges from light yellow to bright according to the production season of the cheese. It presents some openings reminding it of its artisanal side. La Meule du Léman holds its place beautifully on your cheese platter. Accompanied by a Mondeuse Rouge from Domaine Grisard. It also reveals all its flavours in our Savoyard fondue.
