Roche Vache sec - European Score 100/100

European Score analysis

Grandjean's Roche Vache Sec achieves a perfect European Score of 100, sitting at the 50th percentile within the unpasteurised cheeses category, which encompasses 290 assessed products — one of the larger categories in this batch. The median position reflects the competitive nature of a category where European provenance is structurally common. The breakdown is straightforward: company headquarters and manufacturing each contribute the maximum 35 points, distribution adds 15, and proximity contributes 5. Certifications score 0, and the product carries no labels or accreditations of any kind. Origins are declared as France and manufacturing is confirmed in France, providing a clear domestic supply chain. The ingredients sub-score of 10 is the maximum. For a European-minded shopper, the score communicates an uncomplicated European profile: a French brand producing a raw-milk cheese in France from French-sourced milk, with no additional complexity from international sourcing or certification claims. The absence of any labels or certifications means there is no third-party verification of production standards beyond the basic regulatory requirements applicable to raw-milk cheese production in France. At the 50th percentile of a large and diverse category, this product performs at parity with the median, which in a category of 290 predominantly European cheeses still represents a solid European alignment. Shoppers seeking a straightforward, domestically produced raw-milk cheese will find the sourcing picture here transparent and consistent.
