Montasio Stravecchio - Della Savia Dairy

Montasio Stravecchio is the most noble and mature expression of this famous cheese from Friuli Venezia Giulia . Produced according to ancient artisan traditions, Montasio Stravecchio requires over 12 months of maturation, thus developing a robust and complex flavor that reflects the passion and dedication of local producers.

This cheese is characterized by its grainy and crumbly texture, with a natural rind that darkens over time. On the palate, it offers aromatic notes of dried fruit, hay and light animal nuances, giving an intense and satisfying tasting experience.

The Caseificio della Savia , renowned for its attention to quality and tradition, produces Montasio Stravecchio using only milk, salt, rennet and lysozyme , meticulously following the production specifications. Each wheel is vacuum packaged at the time of order to guarantee the freshness and integrity of the product.

Montasio Stravecchio is perfect to be enjoyed alone, perhaps accompanied by a good glass of full-bodied red wine such as Refosco or Cabernet, or to be grated on polenta and pasta dishes to enhance the flavours. Every bite tells the story of the Friulian mountains and the cheese-making art passed down for generations.
