L'Artisan Marcel
L'Artisan · Great Ocean Road, Victoria
Earthy, fruity and lactic, a wrinkly-rinded organic cheese in the style of Saint-Marcellin.
The cheese
Third-generation cheesemaker Matthieu Megard grew up in the French Alps and makes his L'Artisan cheeses from the organic milk of a single herd of Jersey cows in Victoria. Marcel is his nod to Saint-Marcellin, with a wrinkly golden geotrichum rind. Each cheese weighs about 180g.
Tasting notes
There is a melting layer under the rind and a fudgy centre, which becomes rich and oozy with time. The flavour is earthy, slightly fruity and lactic.
How to enjoy
Serve it whole and scoop it up with baguette, or warm it briefly in the oven. Pair it with a Côtes du Rhône or a sparkling wine. Take it out of the fridge an hour before serving.
