THE SAVOIE REGION

Nestled in the French AlpsSavoie is famous for its mountains, lakes, and villages, as well as its exceptional terroir.

The region’s gastronomy is centered around rich cheeses and white wines, featuring local white grape varieties like Jacquère and Altesse, alongside reds from the Mondeuse grape. Savoie also offers world-renowned cow’s milk cheeses, including Abondance, Reblochon, and Tomme de Savoie.

MEET OUR CHEESEMAKER

Philippe Alléosse, a Master Craftsman Maturer, is an expert in the secrets of French cheese heritage. The art of maturing cheese is learned through hands-on experience. Much like a painter or sculptor, Philippe perfects the shapes, textures, and colors of his cheese while keeping all five senses, including smell, touch, hearing, taste, and sight, on high alert.
