Raclette is a classic mountain cheese traditionally enjoyed melted, either using a specialized raclette device or over a wood fire. This cheese is a centerpiece of hearty meals, often served with boiled potatoes, cold cuts, and pickled accompaniments.


Its creamy, smooth texture makes it ideal for melting, providing a rich and satisfying culinary experience. The maturing process for Raclette takes place in the cellars of Mons Fromages, ensuring consistent quality and flavor development. This controlled aging process allows the cheese to achieve its signature characteristics, including its mild yet buttery taste, subtle nutty notes, and its smooth, elastic interior, perfect for melting.


Raclette pairs wonderfully with dry white wines, particularly those from the Savoie region, complementing its flavors and enhancing the overall dining experience.
