Handcrafted exclusively during the summer months when cows graze freely on the lush, high-altitude pastures of Canton Fribourg, Le Gruyère d’Alpage AOP is the ultimate expression of Swiss Alpine terroir. Patiently aged for a full 12 months in subterranean mountain cellars, this rare, seasonal masterpiece features a firm, golden paste delicately studded with fine protein crystals.
On the palate, it delivers a dense, melt-in-the-mouth texture that releases a deeply complex bouquet of wild mountain flowers, warm sweet cream, and roasted nuts with a lingering, savory depth. Magnificent when enjoyed on its own alongside crisp walnuts, artisanal cold cuts, and a glass of light red wine, it also elevates traditional Swiss fondues to extraordinary gourmet heights.
Wine Pairing:
Red wines (Cotes de Beaune, Beaujolais)
White wines (Chardonnay, Gewurztraminer)
