Délice des Cabottes – A Creamy Jewel from Burgundy

Délice des Cabottes is a decadent triple-cream cow’s milk cheese made in Burgundy, France, by a respected and long-established Burgundian creamery. With its soft bloomy rind and lush interior, this cheese is an elegant example of the rich dairy tradition of the region—where full-fat milk and cream come together to create something truly indulgent.

Its name, Cabottes, refers to the small dry-stone shelters once used by vineyard workers in Burgundy—rooting the cheese deeply in its terroir, both in name and in character.

Flavor and Texture

• Texture: The paste is silky, thick, and spoonable, with a buttery, almost mousse-like texture when fully ripened. It has a fine bloomy rind that gently gives way to the soft, ivory heart within.

• Flavor: Rich and sweetly lactic, with notes of cultured cream, fresh butter, and a hint of earthiness near the rind. The flavor is mild yet opulent, with a touch of salt and tang that balances its richness.

Pairing Suggestions

• Food: Pair with a fresh baguette, toasted brioche, or a slice of nut bread. It’s excellent with honey, fig jam, or roasted almonds.

• Wine: Enjoy with a crisp Crémant de Bourgogne, a fine Champagne, or a lean white Burgundy such as Chablis or Mâconnais Chardonnay.

A Burgundy Classic

Délice des Cabottes is everything a triple-cream cheese should be: generous, velvety, and comforting, yet crafted with balance and restraint. It offers a luxurious tasting experience while remaining incredibly accessible—perfect for both seasoned cheese lovers and those just discovering the pleasures of French soft cheeses.

Whether as part of a refined cheeseboard or simply enjoyed with a glass of wine, Délice des Cabottes delivers pure pleasure in every bite.
