D\u00e9lice de Bourgogne<\/span><\/a> is definitely a conversion cheese: one that is capable of moving people who are unexcited about the idea of fancy cheese from the \u201cmeh\u201d to the \u201cyeah!\u201d column. And what\u2019s not to love? The cheese is literally and aptly named \u201cdelight,\u201d (of Burgundy,) and described as \u201cbuttery, creamy, and luscious\u201d by Christian Petty, Store Manager and Cheese Buyer of Minneapolis-based shop, Surdyk\u2019s<\/span><\/a>. D\u00e9lice de Bourgogne tops Surdyk\u2019s best seller list, as well as other stores we have profiled. Available at both Trader Joe\u2019s and Whole Foods, I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if it was a best-seller in those places also, for its approachable, downright delightful manner.<\/p>\n

\n<\/h2>\n

What is D\u00e9lice de Bourgogne?<\/h2>\n

D\u00e9lice de Bourgogne is a soft-ripened, pasteurized cow\u2019s milk, triple-cream cheese<\/span><\/a> coming from the Burgundy region in France, and modeled after an older, Burgundy-based cheese of a very similar style, Brillat-Savarin. (In fact, depending on what size D\u00e9lice de Bourgogne you\u2019ve got in your basket, it technically qualifies as Brillat-Savarin.)<\/p>\n

\n

History of D\u00e9lice de Bourgogne<\/h2>\n

While D\u00e9lice de Bourgogne gives the impression of being an elder statesman of the bloomy-rind category, in reality it\u2019s a bit of a younger model (at least in name) as French cheeses go, developed in 1975 by Jean Lincet at Fromagerie Lincet<\/span><\/a>. Brillat-Savarin, its parent cheese, dates back to the 1890s, and still a teenager by certain French cheese standards. D\u00e9lice de Bourgogne has a registered trademark by Fromagerie Lincet, but neither it nor Brillat-Savarin is a PDO cheese.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n

How is D\u00e9lice de Bourgogne Made?<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n

\n

Pasteurized cow\u2019s milk is fortified with additional fresh cream or cr\u00e8me fra\u00eeche, bringing the butterfat content to about 75% for D\u00e9lice de Bourgogne. Inoculated with penicillium candidum <\/em>cultures, the cheese is aged for at least one week for smaller rounds, (which qualify as Brillat-Savarin,) and two weeks or more for larger ones, (which don\u2019t,) resulting in a smooth, bright white exterior, and a dense, homogenous interior with serious cream line potential.\u00a0<\/p>\n

D\u00e9lice de Bourgogne Tasting Notes<\/h2>\n

As a young cheese of considerable butterfat, D\u00e9lice de Bourgogne is typically described as lactic and sweet, with just a hint of gentle, mushroomy earthiness, especially near the rind. Its mild nature, combined with its opulent texture, makes it the closest one may come to eating straight butter in polite company.<\/p>\n

D\u00e9lice de Bourgogne Pairings<\/h2>\n
<\/p>\n

\"Edna<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n

For accoutrement pairings, try Delice de Bourgogne with something sweet to round out its light tang, such as fig or cherry preserves. For a truly inspired dessert preparation, swap it out for the marshmallow in a s\u2019more.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Because D\u00e9lice de Bourgogne is rich in texture but delicate in flavor, its ideal wine pairing is a sparkling that won\u2019t overwhelm it but can help scrub your palate clean in anticipation of the next bite. For a terroir-driven pairing, try a Cr\u00e9mant de Bourgogne sparkling. Other rich Burgundy white wines such as Mersault also mirror D\u00e9lice de Bourgogne quite well. For domestic selections, try a crisp California Sparkling like Taralyn Brut<\/strong>, a NYIWC 2022 Double Gold winner<\/span><\/a> or a rich California Chardonnay such as Edna Valley Vineyards Chardonnay<\/span><\/a>, another Double Gold winner.<\/p>\n
