While the horses were racing we were happily nibbling on this:

When you see the words "grape vine ashed" you usually expect to see the ash on the outside. Since this is a Brie, the cheese is ashed and then left for the white mould to develop over it.

Having left this out of the fridge for a few hours and serving it close to its best before date, I've been well rewarded with this wonderful runny texture. There's a rich creamy flavour but the rind is surprising mild and very enjoyable to eat.

You could well be excused for treating it like a cheese fondue.
