About the Cheese
Gorgonzola Piccante is the stronger predecessor to Gorgonzola Dolce, known for its dense cream texture and powerful flavour.
Aged for over a year in caves and repeatedly washed with brine, this blue cheese boasts a somewhat sticky rind and a pronounced aroma.
Its strong, nutty taste lingers on the palate, making it a perfect match for full-bodied red wines or red-grape-based dessert wines.
Cheesemaker: Ambrosi
Founded by Luigi Ambrosi, a visionary entrepreneur, the Ambrosi family has been a cornerstone of Italian cheese-making since the early 20th century.
Initially starting with a butter factory, Luigi’s son Ottorino expanded into agribusiness, leveraging his expertise to elevate the family business. Today, Ambrosi is a leading name in premium Italian cheeses, combining tradition, quality, and innovation.
