Cas. GIOVANNI INVERNIZZI srl

From Pontirolo Nuovo, in the province of Bergamo, Cas. Giovanni Invernizzi srl oversees two soft cheeses that are cornerstones of Lombard production. The two denominations tell different stories within the same cheesemaking culture: on one side, Quartirolo Lombardo DOP, a rectangular cheese that evolves from a subtle acidity when fresh to a deeper aromaticity with aging; on the other, Taleggio DOP, a washed-rind cheese, matured for a minimum of thirty-five days on wooden boards. The geographical scale of these protections is remarkable—1,361 municipalities for Quartirolo, 1,480 for Taleggio—placing the company within an area where cheesemaking remains central to the regional food identity. Rather than multiplying references, the producer works vertically on these two cheeses, carefully managing aging times and supports as variables that define their character. A portrait of continuity emerges: two soft cheeses, two distinct maturations, a single Lombard dairy tradition that the company interprets with technical precision, reflecting the essence of its territory of origin in the rind and aroma.
