EDITORIAL REVIEWS


Product Description
Fontina is the symbol of agriculture in Italy's tiny, French speaking Aosta Valley region. The cows that produce the milk for Fontina Val d'Aosta graze on high-altitude Alpine pastures dotted with wildflowers and native herbs. Fontina is a great cooking cheese, as it melts evenly without losing any flavor. Extremely aromatic (some might say "stinky"), Fontina is best noted for its value as a savory and fruity table cheese. Its slightly grassy flavor embodies the taste of a true raw milk cheese.Made from unpasteurized cow's milk, aged 90 days.Photo depicts whole 19 lb. form of cheese.We cut and wrap this item by the 1/2 pound.Please contact us if you would like to purchase the whole form.
