Lombella Michele

Bitto DOPValtellina Casera DOP

Lombella Michele produces two of Lombardy's most distinctive mountain cheeses within the precise geographical boundaries that define them. Valtellina Casera DOP, a semi-skimmed cow's milk cheese from Sondrio province, develops its characteristic firm paste over a minimum seventy-day aging period. Bitto DOP, the rare raw-milk cylinder that weighs between 8 and 25 kilograms, emerges only during the brief June-to-September alpine pasture season. Each wheel reflects both terroir and tradition encoded in DOP regulations spanning 77 and 87 municipalities respectively.
