FONTINA VAL D'AOSTA / Fontina d'Aosta Co-op / Italy / Raw Cow / Semi-Soft
- In Store Only. Subject to availability.
From the Aosta Valley in the Italian Alps, this cheese has been an Italian staple since the Middle Ages. Valdaostana cows graze on Alpine pastures, and the resulting cheese is cave-aged for at least three months, giving it a subtle but complex, floral, earthy flavor with hints of truffle and honey.
Experience the rich tradition of Fontina cheese, a semi-soft, raw cow’s milk masterpiece from Italy’s Aosta Valley. Aged to perfection, this cheese boasts a creamy texture with nutty and slightly tangy flavors. Its melt-in-your-mouth consistency makes it a favorite for fondue, pasta dishes, and gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches. Enjoy it on its own or paired with crusty bread, cured meats, and a robust red wine. Revered for its versatility and depth of flavor, Fontina cheese is an essential addition to any cheese lover’s repertoire. Explore its Alpine heritage with every delectable bite!
