Aged for a minimum of 4 to 6 weeks, Pont-l'Évêque develops a supple, buttery interior, encased in a golden-orange washed rind that gives off a mildly earthy yet complex aroma. Its flavour is rich, creamy, and subtly tangy, with notes of hazelnut, fresh grass, and a touch of Normandy’s signature saltiness. Compared to other washed-rind cheeses like Époisses or Livarot, Pont-l'Évêque has a gentler intensity, making it a perfect introduction to this style of cheese.
Traditionally enjoyed with crusty bread, apples, and cider, Pont-l'Évêque pairs beautifully with Normandy ciders, Chablis, or light-bodied red wines like Pinot Noir, enhancing its creamy, nutty character. Best served at room temperature, this cheese is a must-have for any gourmet cheeseboard or fine French dining experience.
