Chavignol

Chavignol, Sancerre

🧀Crottin means 'horse droppings' — the cheese's original shape
🍷Pair with Sancerre, the local white

This Loire village birthed Crottin de Chavignol, the puck-shaped goat cheese that gets nuttier with age. Wander winding lanes dotted with fromageries and cellars where affineurs quietly work magic.
