Raclette de Savoie - European Score 100/100

European Score analysis

Saveurs de Nos Régions' Raclette de Savoie earns a perfect score of 100, with 35 points for headquarters, 35 for manufacturing, 7 for ingredients, 15 for distribution, 5 for certifications, and 5 for proximity. The ingredients score of 7 reflects some complexity in sourcing, while the certification component of 5 is earned through the product's Protected Geographical Indication status.

Origins are confirmed as France, and the product carries French milk and PGI labels. The PGI designation for Raclette de Savoie defines a specific geographical area in the Savoie and Haute-Savoie departments of the French Alps, along with production requirements for the milk and cheesemaking process. This formal geographical protection, while less prescriptive than a full PDO, nonetheless provides meaningful regional assurance and distinguishes this product from generic raclette without a territorial link.

At the 53rd percentile among 87 raclette products, this cheese sits just above the midpoint of a large and competitive category. The PGI certification and Alpine French provenance give it a differentiated positioning relative to unprotected competitors, even if the percentile reflects a crowded field of well-scored products. For consumers seeking a raclette with formal regional protection, French Alpine milk, and a documented PGI provenance, this Saveurs de Nos Régions product provides a clear and certified regional identity.
