The perfect harmony between cheeses and Quebec wines




At Soteck Clauger, we are proud to support the cheese tradition of local companies and to highlight some of our customers and partners.



Today, we invite you to discover four wonderful cheeses from Fromagerie de l'Abbaye in Saint-Benoît-du-Lac, accompanied by carefully selected Quebec wines for an unforgettable taste experience.



Discover Mont Saint-Benoît, a firm cheese with a washed rind and delicate aromas of hazelnut and butter. To enhance this cheese, there's nothing like Chardonnay from Vignoble de l'Orpailleur. With its notes of green apple and pear, and a touch of vanilla, this wine provides a creamy texture that blends perfectly with the richness of Mont Saint-Benoît. Together, they create a symphony of flavors that will delight your taste buds.


Saint-Augustin, a semi-firm cheese with milky flavors and mushroom notes, finds its perfect balance with the rosé from Domaine du Ridge. This wine, with its fresh aromas of strawberry and raspberry, brings a lightness and liveliness that contrast deliciously with the sweetness of Saint-Augustin. A fresh accord that brightens up summer evenings.


For lovers of blue-veined cheeses, Bleu Bénédictin is a real revelation. With its powerful notes of mushroom and salt, it deserves a worthy accompaniment. Cidrerie Milton’s ice cider, with its intense sweetness and concentrated apple aromas, offers a perfect counterpoint. The sweetness of the cider balances the power of the cheese, creating a delicate and captivating harmony.


Frère Jacques, with its firm texture and nutty, buttery flavors, finds its ideal partner in Venice Rosso from Vignoble Carone. This red wine, with notes of ripe red fruits and black cherry, and its soft tannins, wonderfully complement the complex aromas of Frère Jacques (DISTINCTION: 2nd prize – British Empire Show 2015 and 2017 1st prize – British Empire Cheese Show 2021. ) A refined alliance that promises an unforgettable sensory journey.
