Vigneron is a wonderful pleasantly earthy cheese, it was created to showcase the vine leaves and wines from the Coriole vineyard, in McLaren Vale. They specially select vine leaves to wrap the young cheeses in and gently wash the cheese with a 2004 Wooded Chardonnay.

When ripe this cheese will ooze a velvety paste and give you an exceptionally pleasing mouthfill, full of complexity. You can eat the leaves, but that is a matter of taste!

The cheese comes about a little accidentally. By way of a cheesemaker vs winemaker challenge “how about making us a special cheese” Grant Harrisson our winemaker challenged and this was the result, marrying our cheese and wine. Kris Lloyd.
