Fontina DOP 250g

Fontina is a medium-long matured fat cheese from Valle d'Aosta recognised with the D.O.P. mark. Only cow's milk is used for the production of Fontina, the farms from which the milk is derived are mostly located in the mountain pastures. Fontina D.O.P. is an ancient cheese, in fact the first quotations date back to 1477 in Somma Lactinorum. The cheese is orange-brown in colour, the rind is thin with an elastic paste and the characteristic fine straw yellow eyes. Fontina cheese is suitable for long maturing. Medium persistent at aromatic level and delicate to the taste.
