Comté cheese
Comté cheese, with its complex nutty, fruity and sometimes caramel-like flavor profile, pairs beautifully with wines from its native Jura region that offer complementary nuttiness and acidity. The cheese's crystalline texture and savory depth also works wonderfully with Belgian-style beers that offer fruity esters and carbonation to cleanse the palate.
