Origin: Our Parmigiano Reggiano 36 mesi (how you say months, in Italian), cradled in the quiet high pastures, is a proud reflection of the mountainous region's unique terroir.
The lush meadows and the clean environment of the area provide the perfect setting for our cheese, and every bite of our Parmigiano Reggiano bears witness to the heritage of this mountainous area and the craftsmanship of Luca and the other masters who produce Parmigiano, with an unsurpassed taste and quality, that can only be achieved through centuries of experience and tradition.
Do you like a distinct taste? A Parmigiano Reggiano matured for 36 months is the right choice for you. Try it on its own with pieces of salami and focaccia bread for a unique appetizer, or as an after-dinner snack in contrast with honey or jam. And if you want to give your omelette, lasagna or pasta some character, grate this cheese for an extra flavorful touch! Our Parmigiano Reggiano, cradled in the quiet high pastures, is a proud reflection of the mountainous region's unique terroir. The clean environment and lush flora infuse the cheese with a markedly intense flavor that really puts it in a class of its own.
Tasting notes:
Aroma: This Parmigiano Reggiano presents a deep and complex flavor that embraces a pronounced nutty and spicy character. A symphony of aromas unfolds, accompanied by a harmonious melody of dried fruit and a balanced blend of warm spices.
Palate: A rich and layered profile that reveals a blanket of nutty elegance and a spicy depth that only time can cultivate. Palate: The crystalline texture gracefully fades away, leaving a memorable umami note and a pleasantly bold finish.
Perfect combinations:
Wine: Pair the lively character of the cheeses with a robust red wine such as Barolo, Amarone or Primitivo di Manduria, or choose a bubbly Prosecco for a delightful interplay of flavors.
Food: Elevate your dishes by grating it over creamy risotto, stirring it into hearty polenta, or enjoying it with honey, pears, jams (fig or pear are my personal favourites!) and walnuts for a harmonious blend of flavors and textures.
Experience: Each slice of our lovingly aged Parmigiano Reggiano invites you to participate in the time honored tradition of Italian cheesemaking — a true feast for the palate.
Buon appetito!
The pieces are unique due to the cutting operation and therefore it is impossible to guarantee a uniform weight. For this reason, a weight tolerance of about +/- 5% is expected.
