La Sauvagine™

It is estimated that in the fall, the Quebec sky plays host to over 13 million migrating ducks, geese and teals. They make up what is called the “sauvagine” or “wildfowl”.

Inspired by the splendor of these birds, Canadian artisan cheesemakers have created La Sauvagine™ (la saw-va-GENE”), a remarkable cow’s milk cheese with a deliciously rustic flavor. This soft ripened treasure features a moist, supple rind and runny, ivory body that will melt in your mouth. Its fresh, buttery taste offers just a hint of savory mushroom flavor that stands up will against earthy reds like Argentine Malbec.
