Directly from Parma: Parmigiano Reggiano PDO "Vacche Rosse", vacuum-packed, weighing 2,2 lbs (kg 1) seasoned 40/48 months Extremely decided, flavours and aromas are even more intense, to titillate the palate of mature-cheese connoisseurs: a small reserve, not always available. It goes well with both red wines of great body and structure (Barolo, Barbaresco, Brunello di Montalcino) that with sweet white wines and meditation. Try pairing with honeys of different types as well as the perfect combination with traditional balsamic vinegar, which is also good maturation. EUROPE, USA, JAPAN DELIVERIES IN FEW DAYS With the Consorzio "Vacche Rosse" seal, it is a "PDO" product (Denomination of Protected Origin), and, in fact, can today be produced as it was eight centuries ago, only with essential and natural ingredients: quality milk for the local area, fire and curdle, with the genuine ancient methods, with the art and wisdom of the dairyman. The Reggiana Breed The Reggiana is a breed of cattle native to Northern Italy, currently bred exclusively for a single purpose: the production of milk destined to be transformed into Vacche Rosse Parmigiano Reggiano. The outstanding quality of Vacche Rosse milk, with its superior protein and casein content, is well-known and widely appreciated. The King of Cheeses The absence of lactose stands out among its characteristics, along with high digestibility and nutritional values and a wealth of calcium and essential amino acids. Its rich straw-yellow colour is due to the cows' OGM- and Unifeed-free diet of grass, hay and cereals. It has a very fine, granular, small-eyed structure that breaks into slivers, and characteristic aroma and taste; it is sweet and flavoursome without being too spicy. Seasoning at least 40 months. Vacche Rosse Consortium The "Consorzio Vacche Rosse" cooperative processes milk of the Reggiana Breed only.
