KEY INFORMATION
Gorgonzola Piccante DOP is a soft, sharp, aged blue cheese made with full fat, pasteurised, cow's milk. It has a white or pale yellow compact, crumbly paste speckled with a homogeneous distribution of blueish-green marbling. The rind is compact, rough, hard and grey in colour. It differs from its cousin Gorgonzola Dolce in that the flavours are strong, intense and sharp with a pungent, spicy bite coming early on.
