Italian Cheese Awards - Nominee

2019

Parmigiano Reggiano Vacche Rosse oltre 36 mesi made by Il Cantone is a high-quality cheese produced in Italy. This cheese is made exclusively from the milk of the Red Cows of Reggiana, a breed known for its rich and flavorful milk, which is ideal for creating Parmigiano Reggiano.


The cheese is aged for over 36 months, allowing it to develop a complex and deep flavor profile with a firm, granular texture that is highly prized by connoisseurs. It often features notes of toasted nuts, and a slightly fruity tang, with a particularly robust umami character that makes it stand out among other Parmigiano Reggiano varieties.


The aging process also results in the formation of the characteristic crunchy protein crystals that add to its unique mouthfeel.
