Wilde Childe is a cow’s milk cheese from Switzerland with a ruddy, dried apricot hued rind. The paste is the colour of farmhouse butter and looks smooth and dense, with no holes apparent.
Wilde Childe presents a bouquet that is aromatic but without pungency. Fragrances include crème fraiche and butterscotch which contrasts pleasantly with faint notes of earthy porcini mushroom.
In the mouth the cheese is semi-firm, light and supple, with a texture not unlike fudge. Initially, flavours are sweetish, reminiscent of caramel and fresh cream. These aspects gradually develop into more savoury notes, with tantalising hints of fresh-baked brioche, roasted almonds and sautéed mushrooms.
Serve with a Clare Valley Riesling, a Yarra Valley Pinot Rosé, a Merlot, or a Sparkling Ale.
Wilde Childe is flavoursome enough to serve on its own with water biscuits and thin slices of fresh apples and pears. It will also make a superb supper dish of grilled cheese on toast.
