Description:
This farmstead pecorino is made with 100% sheep milk from the cheesemaker’s own flock. From Venosa in Lucania, the fresco, aged for about 2-3 months, hints at the richness of a more aged cheese but has a fresh, milky note and a softer, more open texture. The semistagionato is aged about 4-6 months during which time it develops a firm yet dense, smooth texture and a full, sweet and nutty flavor. Smoother, sweeter, and less salty than many pecorinos, The stagionato pecorino is aged a minimum of one year during which time is develops a hard, grana-like texture and a strong, slightly sharp flavor with sweet notes of grass and chocolate.
