Washed-rind cow's milk cheese washed in Marc de Bourgogne. It gives off a scent described as fermented, barnyard, wet socks, funky, with a taste that’s rich, salty, creamy, umami, and a texture that's orange sticky rind, soft and runny inside. It’s often enjoyed spread on rustic bread, served with figs or berries, paired with burgundy pinot noir.
