Parmigiano Reggiano DOP 18 Months
In 1953 Maria and Sergio bought a small dairy and started making Parmigiano Reggiano, three wheels a day. Their children and grandchildren now run the Gennari dairy, making up to 100 wheels a day but still following the same philosophy: quality above everything.
Tasting notes
Sharp and complex, with fruity, nutty notes, a strong savoury flavour and a slightly crunchy texture.
