| Wyngaard Chèvre Gris is a 10-month aged, semi-hard goat cheese from the Netherlands, produced by Wijngaard Kaas B.V. using pasteurized milk from goats grazing on Overijssel’s peaty soil. It uses microbial rennet, is ripened in special caves replicating historic microclimates, and has 50% fat in dry matter. The cheese features a dense, creamy texture with fine protein crystals, and a complex flavor profile of wood, walnut, sea salt, mild acidity, and slight sweetness. Recommended pairings include sparkling wines, crisp whites, amber ales, wheat beers, and walnuts, honey, or pear slices. It won first prize at the 2016 World Cheese Contest. | |
