AZIENDA AGR. QUINSON S.S.

At the foot of Mont Blanc, in Morgex, the Quinson family has been producing milk for generations and has, over time, expanded their work to include full cheesemaking. Their Fontina DOP is crafted from the raw, whole milk of Valdostana cows, developing the elastic paste, characteristic 'eyes,' and measured sweetness that define raw milk processing, without thermal shortcuts that would flatten its profile. In summer, the herds ascend to pastures above fifteen hundred meters, and that ascent is then reflected in the cheese, which changes character depending on the grass and the alpine grazing season. Aging takes place on the farm, with different maturation periods that convey the many voices of the mountain in a single form. Those who travel up the valley can stop here to follow the entire production chain, from the milk collected in high-altitude pastures to the maturing wheels, and taste Fontina precisely where its cycle is completed.
