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.

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.

Ubriaco Prosecco or Durello
This wine-soaked cheese is gentler than some of the others from this region. A young mountain cheese is soaked with sparkling Prosecco wine. This results in a mild, yet pleasing marriage between the creamy, milky flavoured cheese and the light fruity notes of the wine. It is matured for a minimum of 3 months. The texture is soft and supple – enjoy before dinner with a glass of something bubbly.

Hervé Mons Brebis Fougere
Translate by “Ewe fern”, this semi soft sheep’s milk washed is dressed with a little fern sprig. As the cheese looks not offensive in flavours, after the first bite you will be wowed by a pleasant but strong “sheepish” flavour. The gritty rind fades away quickly in mouth, a long lasting earthy and nutty flavour.
