Product Information
A semi-hard cheese from pasteurized whole buffalo milk. Its thin rind covered in pressed ground black pepper encases a compact dry paste with small and even eyes. Its complex olfactory notes include butter, umami, yeast, aromatic herbs like salvia, and floral notes of honey. Sweet mouthfeel, with a balanced saltiness and slight milky and vegetable aromatics. A pleasant consistency thanks to its melt-in-the-mouth and crumbliness.

Comté AOP, Marcel Petite Fort St An. matured 48months
Our 48 month Comté from Marcel Petite has been specially matured to develop an amazingly complex flavour that will have you coming back for more and more – sweet roasted nuts, hints of yeastiness, rich cream and an echo of grassy mountain pastures. The texture retains a smooth consistency, but becomes firm and condensed over time. Small, white amino acid crystals can be seen through-out the interior – the sign of a well matured cheese. Very Rare indeed!

Latteria Vecchio
NB: Cheese delivered to selected postcodes within the greater Sydney metropolitan area only.
Latteria Vecchio is an incredibly popular choice for cheese and antipasto platters.

Notes of salted caramel or butterscotch might be present in extra mature cheeses. The name ‘latteria’ is a variation on the Italian word for community dairy (latterie) and vecchio = old/matured.

Cheese and wine combined – this is one of the famous ‘drunken’ hard cheeses of Italy, matured for a minimum of 12 months.

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. The cheese takes the name from the wine used for his maturation. The Capo di Stato wine is an excellence of Treviso area. A cheese that stands out for elegance and balance.

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.
