At the heart of Casentino, a Pecorino cheese is born that embodies the most authentic Tuscan dairy tradition. Pecorino Casentino al Pomodoro Pratomagno is aged for approximately 6 months, developing a rich and harmonious aromatic profile, enhanced by a characteristic tomato-treated rind, which highlights its identity and artisanal appearance.
The cheese has a medium texture, pleasantly compact but still soft when cut, while on the palate it offers a perfect balance between lactic notes, hints of dried fruit, and the typical savoriness of sheep's milk.
How to enjoy it
Perfect as the star of an Italian cheese board, it pairs beautifully with Tuscan cured meats, chestnut honey, fig jams, and rustic bread.
For an even more authentic experience, we recommend pairing it with medium-bodied Tuscan red wines such as a Chianti DOCG or a Rosso di Montalcino, which can enhance its aromatic complexity without overpowering its nuances.
For those who enjoy gourmet tastings, this Pecorino also pairs perfectly with wines of greater personality such as Cabernet Franc Cave Rosse, Merlot Cave Rosse, and Cinque di Buvoli, ideal for enhancing its structure and aromatic persistence.
