Description

Gran Maddalena 12 months is the youngest, sweetest, and creamiest representative of the great cheese tradition of the Po Valley. Handcrafted in historical copper vats shaped like an inverted bell, this cheese matures for a full year in the silence of the aging cellars. In this young stage, it retains its extraordinary elasticity and an enveloping sweetness reminiscent of fresh milk and butter. It is a versatile and sociable cheese: perfect cubed as an aperitif or for delicately refining traditional dishes – an elegant and accessible entry into the world of Italian Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) cheeses.

MaWa tip: Its elasticity and milky sweetness are excellent for "cleansing" the palate when combined with Franciacorta Brut Tenuta Moraschi or the Asolo Superiore Rive della Chiesa.

Origin of raw material: Mazzano (Lombardy, Italy). The milk comes from farms strictly certified by the Consortium for the Protection of the Po Valley.
Milk characteristics: Raw milk from cows, milked twice a day and partially skimmed by natural surface skimming in large tanks.
Processing and coagulation: Processed in traditional copper vats. Addition of natural whey as a starter culture, coagulation with calf rennet, and breaking of the curd with the traditional "spino" (thorn). This is followed by cooking, extraction with linen cloths, and molding.
Salting and aging: Salting by immersion in brine for 14-30 days, followed by controlled aging for at least 12 months on wooden shelves, during which the wheels are constantly cleaned and turned.
Flavor profile: Sweet, delicate, distinctly milky, and melt-in-the-mouth.

Tasting notes: When cut, the cheese is compact, elastic, and a very pale straw-yellow, almost ivory-white. The nose reveals fresh, clear aromas of milk, cream, fresh butter, and a light vegetal note. On the palate, it is soft, sweet, and never overpowering, with a subtle graininess that melts pleasantly on the tongue.
Pairings: Extremely versatile. Ideal for aperitifs and light platters. Pairs excellently with mild cured meats, fine pear mostarda, and fresh, citrusy beverages.
Serving temperature: 16–18 °C (remove from the refrigerator and unwrap at least 30 minutes before serving).
