The producer
La Giuncà - Fobello (VC) - Piedmont
Why we chose them
We are in Alta Valsesia, in Vercelli area, where La Giuncà makes curious forms of cheese from the milk of nearby valley. The passion for the raw
milk has remained the same as in the past, as are the natural cellars scattered under the houses of the town and full of a truly fragrant and dense
flora. Bruno, that learned the job from his father, is the master cheesemaker of La Giuncà while Gianluca is the affineur. The creativity of Bruno and
Gianluca is based on the dairy tradition of the territory, it is bound especially at the Tome of local shepherds. That's why their cheeses have complex
hues of colour and flavour, real masterpieces that we want to present to you. Without forgetting their butter, made in a corner of their dairy with an
amazing view on the valley. Really a classy butter!
