Montasio Stravecchio Dop
Montasio is the most famous mountain cheese from the north-eastern Italian region of Friuli. We select only very mature wheels (around 3 years old) as the extended aging leads to the development of a subtle, savoury bite perfectly balanced with notes of cream and tropical fruit on the finish – especially pineapple. Montasio is a very popular cheese that works well with pre-dinner drinks, cheese boards and antipasto platters.

Occelli al Barolo
Cheese royalty meets wine royalty – once you taste this cheese you will be hooked! Full flavoured ‘testun’ cheeses are coated with the pressed grapes used to make Barolo wine – the flavours of the cheese and grapes mingle together to create a flavour that is bitey, creamy, sweet, winey, buttery and sharp all at once (testun loosely translates to ‘hard-headed’, referring to the texture of the cheese). Once you cut through the coating of crushed grapes, the texture is flaky and melt-in-your mouth soft.

Herve Mons Abondance AOP
Abondance is named after a town and a breed of cow – the milk of which must be used to make the cheese. It is a mountain-style cheese with a smooth, firm texture and earthy aroma reminiscent of the cellars where the cheeses are matured. The flavour is slightly savoury at first, giving way to a creamy sweetness with flavours of roasted nuts, freshly cut grass, mountain herbs and butter.

Traditionally ashed Ovaline cendree has a oozy texture under the rind with a slightly chalky center. The clean citrusy and goat flavour pairs well with local a sauvignon blanc.

Capo di Stato
Cheese and wine combined – this is one of the famous ‘drunken’ hard cheeses of Italy, matured for a minimum of 24 months. This full-flavoured cheese is soaked in the local red wine, which stains the rind dark purple and seeps into the cheese creating ‘purple veins’ and amazing depth of flavour. It is strong and bitey with pronounced wine and grape flavours. The texture is firm, smooth and slightly flaky – the wine soaking helps to keep it moist.

St Marcellin
NB: Cheese delivered to selected postcodes within the greater Sydney metropolitan area only.
Soft, dense and fudgey, St Marcellin has a taste you can’t quite get enough of. It is quite unique in that the Geotrichum rind creates a completely different flavour to what you find in a brie or camembert – it is more earthy, rich and nutty and the texture is super-creamy.

Herve Mons Chabichou du Poitou

Parmigiano Reggiano Dop Organic
The King of Cheeses – a great Parmigiano Reggiano like this is a kitchen staple. Our 36 month reggiano from Cantarelli is sweet and savoury with a well-balanced bite. It also has an amazing texture – crumbly and flaky, but still incredibly moist – the result of aging in the family’s naturally ventilated cheese caves, used since the 1800’s for maturing Parmigiano Reggiano. Don’t let a single gram go to waste – use the rind to flavour soups and stocks (discard before serving). Each wedge comes packaged in a special foil to protect the cheese from oxidisation.
