Mountain Product Parmigiano Reggiano 36 months (approx. 1 KG)

The Mountain Product Parmigiano Reggiano, aged 36 months, represents the pinnacle of mountain DOP tradition. The EU certification ensures the origin of the milk, entirely milked in barns located in the mountains, and a natural diet for the cows, cultivated at least 60% in the mountain area. With a rigorous quality assessment carried out at 20 months, this cheese reaches, at 36 months, the maximum expression in complexity and flavor, ideal for those seeking a strong and decisive taste. Milk: Raw milk from mountain barns, with predominantly mountain feeding. Organoleptic Characteristics Appearance: Traditional cylindrical shape with a hard rind. Intense straw-yellow colored paste, free of or with small eyes. Structure: Well-evident granularity, very crumbly and grainy texture, enriched by numerous tyrosine crystals that provide a pleasant crunchiness. Smell and Aroma: Complex and deep, with notes of dried fruit, meat broth, and a slight spiciness of nutmeg, typical of long mountain aging. Taste: Decisive and rich, with notes of spices and dried fruit. The saltiness is balanced by a persistent and complex aftertaste, an expression of the cheese's maturity. Aging: 36 months. Recommended Pairings Honey: Citrus HoneyCitrus honey, with its fresh and light sweetness, pairs perfectly with the delicacy of Pecorino Il Tenero, adding a touch of acidity that enhances the freshness of sheep's milk. Pearls: Lemon PearlsLemon pearls, with their citrusy and lively note, create a pleasant contrast with the creaminess of the cheese, offering a fresh and harmonious experience. Compote: Strawberry and Balsamic Vinegar of Modena IGP CompoteThe strawberry compote, with its fruity sweetness, pairs perfectly with the delicate flavor of Pecorino Il Tenero, balancing its fragrance with a touch of balsamic acidity. Jelly: Lemon JellyLemon jelly provides a citrus freshness that enhances the delicacy and sweetness of the cheese, offering a light and aromatic contrast. Cream: White CreamThe white cream, delicate and without added aromas, enhances the natural sweetness of Pecorino Il Tenero without overpowering it, creating a harmonious pairing. Purissima: Apricot PurissimaThe delicate sweetness and slight acidity of apricot purissima integrate with the creamy and fragrant taste of the cheese, making it an ideal accompaniment. Traditional: Three-Day CherriesThe three-day cherries, with their sweet and slightly sour taste, add a touch of refinement and pleasantly contrast with the softness of Pecorino Il Tenero. Beer: Excellent with a dark beer like a Doppelbock, whose structure pairs perfectly with the complexity of Parmigiano. Wines: Ideal with a full-bodied red wine like a Barolo or an Amarone, or with a structured white like a mountain Riesling, which accompany and enhance the cheese's aromatic notes. Bread: Perfect with whole grain bread or rustic croutons, which complement the crumbly and grainy texture. Other Pairings: Ideal to enjoy in purity to best appreciate its complexity, or accompanied by dried fruit and full-bodied red wines for a sophisticated tasting experience. Recommended Knife: An almond knife for aged cheeses is recommended, which allows breaking the cheese without altering its grainy structure.
