Gorgonzola Piccante – DOP

A bold and spicy blue cheese, IGOR Gorgonzola Piccante is the older cousin of our Gorgonzola Dolce. The aging takes about a year in caves, and it is washed in brine during this period. The rind that develops is thick and rough, with a strong aroma that is more intense that the cheese itself. As for the cheese, it is veined with blue mold throughout its ivory surface, and though less moist than other Gorgonzolas, it is still creamy and sweet, with a great sharpness and tartness that lingers in the mouth. Use IGOR Gorgonzola Piccante in cream sauces for meats and pastas, crumbled over salads, or paired with nuts and fruits on a cheese board. Pair this spicy blue cheese with your favorite sweet dessert wine.
