Produced in four provinces of the Po Valley, this cheese is made in much the same way as the famous Parmigiano Reggiano. Made from partially skimmed milk, it exhibits a hard, thick and smooth dark yellow rind. The wheels are brined for four weeks after moulding and are then ripened in 85% humidity at a temperature of between 18-20°C for at least one to two years.

The large wheels are slightly convex in shape with an oily, golden rind. This rind encases a hard but crumbly interior that is white to straw yellow in colour. The result is a fine grained texture and fragrantly fruity flavour when young which develops a sweeter, stronger flavour with age.
