Lamb

Pasture and salt-marsh lambs — delicate meat, shaped by the flora of high summer pastures or halophytic marine grasses.

13 listed products

This category brings together extensively reared lambs benefiting from geographical recognition: Agneau de l'Aveyron, du Bourbonnais, du Limousin, de Lozère, de Pauillac, du Périgord, du Poitou-Charentes, des Pyrénées, du Quercy, de Sisteron, and Barèges-Gavarnie. The Prés-salés du Mont-Saint-Michel and those of the Baie de Somme are the most singular example: lambs grazed on the salt marsh in conditions that the specifications list unsparingly — harsh climate, risk of becoming bogged down, prolonged walking, halophytic vegetation. It is this very grass that gives the meat its iodised flavour.
