| Our selection | The Bruna cows stands out for the balance between quality and quantity of the milk produced, particularly suitable for cheese making. The Parmigiano Reggiano DOP obtained with this milk is very elegant, with a sweet and creamy flavour. The Bruna breed milk is denser than Frisona's ones and the cheesemaker needs 50 liters more milk to produced a single wheel while the processing requires a greater capacity during phase of curd breaking |

over a small dairy in Collecchio (Parma - Emilia Romagna). Many years have passed and today the forms produced are from 4
different selections: Frisona, Vacca Bruna, Vacca Rossa, Biologico di Frisona. The company is managed by the sons of Sergio and Maria, Paolo
