Description
In the foothills of the Chartreuse mountains, on the border of Isère and Savoie, the Francillon family at Plantimay farm makes small cow’s tommes that stand out for their elegance and fruitiness, distinct from the rustic Tomme de Savoie.
Matured with care in the cellars gives it a light brown rind, dusted with white and yellow molds and engraved with a cow motif that recalls the mountain pastures of its origin. Beneath the rind lies a supple, flavorful paste that captures the delicacy and character of its Alpine terroir.
