Comté: How the Largest Small-Batch Cheese in France Is Made -

Interesting (FTA): “For instance, say it’s January and you see a yellow comté and a white comté on the supermarket shelf. Chances are, the yellow comté came from the previous summer, making it around 8 months old or so, while the white comté probably came from the previous winter, making it at least a year old.”
