Comté Marcel Petit 20+ Months
A symphony of aromas: an outstanding Comté for special moments, to be savoured like a great wine vintage. Aged for more than 20 months by Marcel Petit, one of the Jura's most respected affineurs.
Tasting notes
Complex and aromatic, with brown butter, roasted nuts and caramel, hints of pepper and even chocolate. Firm yet supple, with the crunchy crystals that come with long ageing.

How to enjoy it
The star of any cheeseboard. Try it with a glass of Jura Vin Jaune or Chardonnay, walnuts and slices of apple, or grate it over gratins and into a proper cheese sauce.
For an after-dinner cheeseboard, allow around 100–150g of cheese per person in total, divided between your chosen cheeses. For cheese as the main event, allow around 200–250g per person.
Choose three to five cheeses for a mix of textures, milk types and flavours.
