An elite crowd is gathered in the wine cellars of the renowned Chateau des Folles for an earth shattering introduction - the world’s oldest (and smelliest) cheese variety is about to meet a wine that has been scientifically formulated to bring out its full flavour. Alain Bosc, the eccentric billionare who sponsored the wine-and-cheese project, slouches up to the platform to greet the celebrities and aristocrats who have been gathered here to sip and nibble. He gruffly thanks the scientists who genetically modified the wine grapes and the monks and nuns from the abbey that has been making the cheese for centuries. Then he uses his fingers to take a piece of cheese from his solid gold plate, and follows it with a gulp of wine from his solid gold goblet. He licks his fingers and says “Ah! A perfect pai-“ before he chokes and falls to the floor, dead.
