Cheese: The Best Companion to Jura Wine

Next to wine, Comté, a hard raw milk cheese is one of the most important agricultural products of the Jura and its neighbouring regions in Eastern France. Comté cheese is considered the most popular mountain cheese in France and is closely related to Swiss Gruyère. It is now believed that the recipe was brought to the region by cheese-makers from the Gruyère district in Switzerland at the beginning of the 18th century.
