Fontal

Some cheeses win you over with their intensity, while others are appreciated precisely for their delicate character. Trentino Fontal belongs to the latter: a cow's milk cheese with a soft texture and a pleasantly sweet, delicate flavour, making it a favourite with both adults and children.

It is produced in the dairies of Cavalese in Val di Fiemme, Val di Fassa and Primiero, where fresh milk is transformed according to a cheesemaking tradition that puts the quality of the raw ingredient first. A minimum of 60 days of ageing allows its balanced aroma and flavour to develop while preserving the sweetness that makes it so versatile and appealing even to younger palates.

What sets Trentino Fontal apart from industrially produced Fontal is above all what lies at its very beginning: the quality and freshness of the milk used. This is where its distinctive character comes from, in an authentic and harmonious flavour that tells the story of the territory in a subtle way.

And in the kitchen? Fontal is just as versatile. It is delicious simply sliced and enjoyed on its own, but it truly comes into its own when heated: try it for gratinating, where it becomes golden and beautifully melted, or pair it with a mountain pasture cheese in canederli, for an even richer flavour deeply rooted in Dolomite tradition.

An everyday cheese, perhaps, but with something special: the freshness of mountain milk, the expertise of Trentino's dairies and all the versatility of a product that feels equally at home on the family table and in traditional recipes.
