Savor a french classic: jambon-beurre sandwich with Comté cheese and Côtes du Rhône wines
Did you know that the French are obsessed with the jambon-beurre sandwich?

Just like Lucia did, reimagine this classic sandwich with an iconic French duo: Comté cheese and Côtes du Rhône wines.

What you’ll need: a crusty baguette, creamy butter, French ham, crunchy cornichons, Comté cheese, and, of course, a glass of Côtes du Rhône wine.

Here’s how: Cut the baguette in half, slather it generously with butter, layer on slices of French ham, and top it with some crunchy cornichons. Here comes the twist: add slices of Comté cheese and enjoy your sandwich with a glass of Côtes du Rhône wines.

Both Comté cheese and Côtes du Rhône wines hold Protected Designations of Origin (PDO), guaranteeing high quality and a commitment to sustainable agricultural practices that respect biodiversity. Comté, a semi-hard cheese made from raw milk in the Jura mountains, offers delicate nutty and fruity notes. Meanwhile, Côtes du Rhône wines—a historic vineyard region with roots dating back to Roman times—come in three styles: red, white, and rosé, each with unique character and depth that perfectly complement Comté’s creaminess.

For your next sandwich, try this iconic French pairing to elevate every bite!
