If you like goat’s cheese, you will love Caprinelle – a beautiful semi-hard goat’s milk tomme from Southern France. It has a delightful goat’s milk flavour with a surprisingly creamy finish for a semi-hard cheese. Fresh, clean citrus notes shine through with just a whisper of butterscotch and salt on the back palate. A timeless classic that pairs well with a variety of sparkling and white wines.

Cinerino is a pecorino coated with aromatic ash from local myrtle trees.

A great choice for cheese and antipasti platters. From artisan cheese-makers and affineurs Casa Madaio.
