Wheels of French farmhouse cheese on a walnut counter against a forest green wall

Cheese Shop • Wine Bar • French Market

Cheese cut to order, wine poured until late.

A counter of raw-milk cheese by day, a candlelit wine bar by night, and a market shelf for everything in between.

Tue–Fri · 10h–21h · Sat–Sun · 10h–18hThe Villages, FL

We keep three things: the cave, the bar, and the shelf.

Order a board and a glass, or take a wedge wrapped in paper and be on your way. Both are the whole point.

Notre Histoire

Tracy & Alain Treville

Alain was born and raised in France and has cooked professionally for more than thirty-five years. Tracy grew up in South Florida. They met — and fell in love — while working at The Four Seasons in Atlanta.

Tracy moved to France, where she opened a catering company while Alain kept his place at the stove. Eleven years later, the two of them packed up and came back to the States.

What they brought with them is the whole of this shop: a shared, unreasonable passion for food, and for cheese and wine in particular.

“We only sell what we would happily eat standing up in the kitchen.”
