Tomme au Marc de Raisin is a Tomme de Savoie, a raw cow's milk cheese that is aged under a thick layer of grape marc, the residue that's left after pressing the fruit to make wine.
This gourmet cheese is not very strong; it is mostly fruity with a very slight sharpness. The fermentation in marc deepened the flavor and adds a degree of pleasant earthiness.
The cheese is a delight to the eye and worth sampling during a cheese party.
In order to comply with US FDA regulation for export to the USA the maturation of this cheese has been extended to over 60 days.
