Fontina DOP

Claudio Planaz operates at Pont-Saint-Martin in the Aosta Valley, where he crafts Fontina DOP across the region's 74-municipality production zone. His cheese derives from raw whole milk of Valdostana cows, yielding a springy soft paste studded with characteristic holes. The result: a wheel with clean, delicate sweetness that reflects both alpine terroir and precise technique. Planaz represents the continuity of Valdostana cheesemaking—a craft tied to specific cattle and raw-milk protocols that define protected-origin standards.
