Why we love it

The Testun al Barolo cheese is made with cow’s milk and is a unique cheese with deep roots in the local tradition.

The Testun al Barolo, wrapped in pressed grapes enriched by the Barolo wine are left to mature for at least 150 days. The grapes’ skins not only protect the cheese but add complexity.

The artisan who made it

The La Poiana Cooperative was created in 1982 from a group of artisan cheese makers with aim of producing and promoting local cheeses, cheeses from the so called Grana Valley, from the famous Italian cheese, starting with the Castelmagno, the King of the local cheeses.

La Poiana is synonymous with Castelmagno, the town and the cheese, and their story began in 1982 when the Castelmagno became a DOC protected cheese. Made with local milk produced from cows left free to graze in the green mountain pastures surrounding the town of Castelmagno, surrounded by green, the cooperative soon began producing other local cheeses, from Robiola to Pecorino. All their cheeses are made according to the tradition and made with raw, non pasteurised milk, full and rich of flavour.
