Some encounters change the course of a lifetime, others give rise to inventions capable of transforming the world, and still, others allow the creation of priceless masterpieces. The birth of Provolone Valpadana, now covered by the Protected Designation of Origin, is also the result of a fortunate encounter: the one between the long tradition of stretched-curd cheeses from the sunny southern Italy and the fertile and rich in milk northern Po Valley. Provolone Valpadana DOP is a cheese that carries with it the history of nineteenth-century migrations and it has been able to cross the centuries benefiting from new technologies, without ever losing its deeply artisanal nature. Delicious and beloved all over the world, it can be aged for a few months or more than a year, offering a range of flavors able to conquer every palate, at any age.
