Cheese connoisseur's 80 lb Wheel Of Parmigiano~Reggiano ''Vacche - Details
This relatively rare Parmigiano is available from only a small number of dairies. The "Vacche Rosse" cows, also referred to as "Razza Reggiana", produce much lower milk yields than the Holstein and Fresian cross, Risona Italiana" those are the primary producers of Parmigiano. The protein content of the "Vacche Rosse" is said to be higher, producing a richer, fuller cheese. The color shows that tendency, a buttery yellow in tone. When young it is fruity and mild and the cheese could certainly age as long as 5 years. This makes a great artisan additional to a Parmigiano selection.
Recommended wines: Big Italian reds such as Barbaresco, Barbera, Barolo, Brunello di Montalcino, Chianti Riserva, Salice Selantino, Taurasi, Tignanello
Consistency: Color ranges from ivory white to straw yellow; flaky, fine grained, barely visible eyes.
Taste: Robust and full bodied; fruity, like fresh pineapple, strong, rich, but not overpowering.
