Pecorino balze volteranne This raw organic pecorino from Tuscany is made with vegetable rennet of wild artichoke. It's aged in oak barrels for 60 days, the rind covered in oak and olive wood ash. This imparts a unique green olive flavor and long finish. This cheese is firm, toothsome and has a nutty texture. |
