Macconais
What is Macconais Cheese?
Mâconnais is an artisanal French goat’s milk cheese made in the town of Mâcon, in the Bourgogne region of France.
This full-fat cheese, which received AOC certification in 2005, is shaped like a flat, truncated cone measuring 4–5 cm in diameter and 3–4 cm in height. It is soft, cream-colored, firm, creamy, and smooth, with a melt-in-the-mouth consistency. As it ripens, blue Penicillium mold may begin to develop, gradually turning the cheese from ivory to bluish.
Mâconnais has a delicate herbal, salty flavor. The longer the maturation process, the harder and saltier it becomes.
The cheese pairs perfectly with a glass of Chablis, Mâcon red, Beaujolais, wheat beer, crackers, and fruit.
