Cheese > Cheese Chevre Noir

Chevre Noir is a 1-year aged cheddar-style goat cheese is made by Fromagerie Tournevent, who have been making this cheese for over twenty years, during which time it has garnered a variety of awards at international cheese competitions. This renowned goat’s-milk cheddar uses thermalized milk and vegetarian rennet. Le Chèvre Noir is an elegant, crisp cheese that develops a complex flavour dotted with lactose crystals during the aging process. The aroma of Chevre Noir is soft and pleasant, with a distinct touch of goatiness. The texture is firm and silky smooth as well as crunchy due to the crystals. While it has a traditional aged cheddar flavour, Chevre Noir has sweet, nutty, caramel and wine-flavoured finish. Chevre Noir pairs wonderfully with ice wines, fortified apple cider, fruity sweet white wines, such as Muscatel and Gewertzaminer or a heavy malt beer.
