Organic Pecorino Gran Riserva – raw milk

The organic Pecorino Gran Riserva is the maximum expression of the pecorino from the Podere il Casale agricultural dairy. Processing with raw milk allows to obtain a product with intense aromas and a spicy flavour. During the seasoning, which lasts at least 9 months, it is brushed by hand with frequent turnings, without the use of artificial preservatives. About 90 days after the date of production, it is treated with olive oil base to protect the rind and enhance its aromas. It is a product that must be tasted on its own, precisely to best savor the result of a long maturation.

The result is an extraordinary pecorino with a brownish crust. The flavor is a combination of porcini mushroom notes, broth, baked potatoes and a hint of garlic and ripe pineapple. It is a perfect cheese to accompany a full-bodied red wine such as our “Regio” or even a dessert wine such as a passito. A wonderful combination is also the combination with a blackberry or fig jam.
