CHEESE HIGHLIGHTS:
Il Villaggio Asiago D’Allevo Vecchio is conceived through a long, slow maturation process to create a fruity, slightly sharp cheese with a compact, granular interior full of small holes. After 12 months it resembles honey in color and has a dense grainy consistency to receive the “Vecchio” (aged) certification. The texture is firm, granular, crumbly, and grates easily.
Usage suggestions:
Excellent as a table cheese, serve with salami, crusty bread, grapes and figs.
Wine Pairing:
Goes well with a variety of beverages such as red wine, cranberry juice, and sparkling grape juice.
