Cheese from France, the Vercors massif west of Grenoble
Bleu du Vercors-Sassenage PDOBleu du Vercors-Sassenage
Raw or thermised cow milk is warmed with mostly thermophilic cultures and Penicillium roqueforti, set with rennet at 31–35 °C and cut into hazelnut- to walnut-sized grains. The curd is layered into moulds without pressing, dry-salted for up to three days, then pierced and ripened at 9–14 °C for at least 21 days into a mild, creamy blue. Made in 8 steps over 28 days. The longest step, pierce and ripen in a cool, damp cellar, takes at least 21 days (Ministère de l'agriculture 2025) and runs at 9–14 °C (Ministère de l'agriculture 2025). Mostly thermophilic lactic acid bacteria added at warm maturing and Penicillium roqueforti, the blue veins do most of the fermenting.
No fixed amounts recordedThe specification fixes limits, not a recipe. Each cheese weighs 3.8–5 kg.

What makes this one different
Bleu du Vercors-Sassenage is a mild blue. The grains are stirred until they skin over and are layered into moulds without pressing, which leaves small even gaps for the blue, and it may be sold after only 21 days.
Milk
Cow milk, raw or thermised (raw on farms); Montbéliarde, Abondance and Villard-de-Lans breeds; at least 150 days of grazing a year; no silage or other fermented feed
Paste
Blue, uncooked and unpressed; at least 48 % fat in dry matter and 52 % dry matter
Ripening
At least 21 days from renneting
Size
Flat cylinder 27–30 cm across, 7–9 cm high, 3.8–5 kg, with convex sides
Farm Bleu du Vercors-SassenageMade on the farm from raw milk only, renneted within 36 hours of the oldest milking.
Safety
Cheeses made from raw milk are raw-milk blue cheeses. ANSES advises pregnant women, young children, people over 65 and people with weak immunity to avoid raw-milk cheeses other than cooked pressed ones such as Comté. Cooking the cheese removes the risk.
Hazards the sources name: Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella and Shiga-toxin-producing E. coli (risks ANSES names for raw-milk cheeses).
In the 14th century the Lord of Sassenage, who held the parishes of Lans, Villard-de-Lans, Méaudre and Autrans, took the cheese as a tax and sold it in Sassenage, which spread its name. Farm production faded early in the 20th century; in 1933 Léonard Mestrallet of the Villard dairy cooperative revived the traditional recipe. The local Villard-de-Lans cattle breed nearly vanished in the 1970s and is being restored.
