Washed-rind cow's milk cheese from Burgundy. It gives off a scent described as barnyard, ammonia, fermented, cellar, with a taste that’s salty, creamy, tangy, savory, and a texture that's orange rind, gooey interior, sticky, soft. It’s often enjoyed spread on bread, served with berries, paired with pinot noir.
