Cooperativa Agricola Il Forteto

Vicchio · Province of Firenze · Toscana

Pecorino Toscano DOP

Cooperativa Agricola Il Forteto stands in Vicchio, at the heart of Tuscany's sheep-cheese country, where 286 municipalities share Pecorino Toscano DOP production. The cooperative channels centuries of Tuscan pastoral knowledge into cheese that ranges from creamy, quick-aged wheels to dense, long-ripened blocks—each crafted from milk raised on the region's hillsides. This scale of collective tradition defines the cooperative's standing within Italy's protected food system.
