Primitivo Wine Caciotta Leccese Cheese is a soft, compact cheese made from cow's milk, which is immersed in Primitivo wine during maturation. This step gives the rind a characteristic purplish color and a delicate fruity aroma, giving the cheese a unique and refined taste.
The process involves spinning and maturing the pasta, with a period of immersion in Primitivo wine that allows the intense aromas and subtle aromatic notes to penetrate the caciotta, leaving a light vinous aroma that complements the authentic flavor of the artisanal cheese. The creamy texture and balanced taste make it perfect for those looking for products with distinctive character.
Perfect for enjoying sliced as an appetizer, accompanied by homemade bread, dried fruit, or honey, but also ideal for enriching gourmet cutting boards and hot dishes with an elegant touch.
Ingredients: cow's milk, rennet, salt, Primitivo wine.
Net weight: 1/4 caciotta (about 375g), 1/2 caciotta (about 750g), whole caciotta (about 1.5kg)
