Aged for a minimum of 10 weeks, Emmental de Savoie develops a firm yet supple texture, with its signature large, round holes (or 'eyes'), formed naturally during the ageing process. Its flavour is mild yet rich, offering buttery, nutty, and slightly sweet undertones, with hints of fresh alpine grasses and hazelnuts. As it matures, the cheese gains a deeper, more complex character, making it an excellent choice for both culinary use and cheeseboards.
This 20kg wheel (meule) cut ensures that it retains its full flavour and texture, making it ideal for professional kitchens, delicatessens, and fine cheese counters. Perfect for melting in fondues, gratins, Croque Monsieur, or soufflés, Emmental de Savoie also shines when paired with crisp white wines such as Roussette de Savoie or a light-bodied red from the Rhône Valley.
At Cheesemongery.com, we source only authentic PGI-certified Emmental de Savoie, guaranteeing the highest quality, traditional craftsmanship, and full traceability.
