In Allier, there's a meat so delicious that many are envious! Indeed, having been awarded a Label Rouge and a PGI (Protected Geographical Indication) in 1995, Bourbonnais Charolais beef is simply mouthwatering! Reared in Allier as well as some neighbouring cantons of Creuse, Saône-et-Loire, Loir-et-Cher and Nièvre, a lot of work goes into farming this flavoursome beast.
Healthy and natural, Bourbonnais Charolais beef cattle only eat grass, fodder and cereals. What's more, they are allowed to grow at their own natural pace, to ensure exceptionally high-quality meat.
Currently there are over 2,000 animals in France carrying the Bourbonnais Charolais beef label. You may be tempted to try this tender meat with a much-appreciated marbled taste. However, be aware that Bourbonnais Charolais beef can't be found everywhere, and you will have to go to an accredited butcher.
