Country of Origin: Savoie, France
Style: Hard
Milk: Cow, Unpasteurised
Wine Match: Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Gris
Notes: Raclette is derived from the French word racer, which means "to scrape." This raw cow milk cheese is pale yellow, with small holes throughout and a brownish orange rind. When heated, it has a creamy consistency, and its balanced fat content and moisture allow it to melt evenly without separating or becoming oily.
