Mothais sur feuilleAOP / 180g / Goat/Raw/Animal Rennet / Soft natural / Deux-Sèvres / 25% fat / Its paste is fine, creamy and tastes somewhat sweet when young. During maturing on the leaf, Mothais acquires strong goat animal notes, complemented by woody and dried fruits aromas.
It takes its name from the commune of La Mothe St Héray in Deux-Sèvres where it appeared for the first time in the 1840s. Since then it has been produced throughout Deux-Sèvres, to the south of Vienne, to the north of Charente and Charente-Maritime. It has received its AOC on 01 October 2024.
Have it on a walnut or hazelnut bread. Dried fruits are natural companions of goat cheeses.
Pair it with a dry, fairly bold white. A Chardonnay from the Haut-Poitou for instance or a Pineau de Charentes.
