Why we chose them
The Stutz farm is located in Mombaldone, in the province of Asti, in Langhe hills. Here, Jerome and Ramon Stutz raise goats and produce goat
cheeses following in the footsteps of their parents, who moved to Langhe in the early 1990s. The Stutz family manages the entire production chain:
about 250 goats of the Camosciata breed and a few heads of the native Roccaverano graze freely for 8 months a year, eating shrubs, grass and
leaves. The farm produces Roccaverano DOP and other refined robiola, starting only from raw goat milk, distinguishing itself as one of the
few producers to adhere to the Slow Food regulations of Roccaverano DOP.
