Montasio PDO - 330 g

Montasio PDO - Authentic Alpine Cheese from Friuli

Discover the exceptional taste of Montasio, a prestigious Protected Designation of Origin cheese from the Alpine regions of Friuli-Venezia Giulia and Veneto. This traditional Italian cheese offers a perfect balance of creamy texture and complex, nutty flavours.

What makes Montasio special:

• PDO Protected - Authentic Protected Designation of Origin guaranteeing traditional production methods
• Alpine heritage - Made from milk of cows grazing in pristine mountain pastures
• Versatile aging - Available in fresh (2-5 months), semi-aged (5-10 months), and aged (over 10 months) varieties
• Complex flavour - Delicate and sweet when young, developing nutty and fruity notes with age
• Smooth texture - Compact yet creamy consistency with small, evenly distributed holes

Culinary uses:

Perfect for cheese boards, grating over pasta, melting in risottos, or enjoying with a glass of Friulano wine. Young Montasio pairs beautifully with honey and walnuts, while aged varieties complement robust red wines and crusty bread.

Ideal for traditional dishes like frico (crispy cheese wafers) or simply savoured on its own to appreciate its authentic Alpine character.
