Traditional cheeses - total traceability

From the start Medeghini ensures total traceability "La filiera" from its own feed plant, its own dairy farms and its own laboratories producing starters thus ensuring that the consumer gets top quality dairy products. The milk is subject to strict quality controls throughout and is tested for its suitability before going on to be processed into a range of cheese and dairy products.

Medeghini produces a wide range of traditional soft and hard Italian cheeses.

The five "doc" cheeses all produced according to specific regulations: Grana Padano - possibly the best known of traditional Italian cheeses; Gorgonzola - eaten younger than in the past and so now enjoyed for its milder taste and lighter texture; Provolone - originally from the South and a popular eating cheese; Taleggio - originating from Lombardy, creamy and rich-tasting perfect for eating and cooking; Quartirolo - the younger brother of taleggio, matured for less time and having a distinct "chalky" taste.

With generations of experience Medeghini has successfully developed and marketed three of its own unique cheeses: Cortinella - fresh and light, but tasty; Mazzanella - similar to caciotta, with a very delicate flavour; Adamello - with a shape and taste reminiscent of traditional mountain cheeses.

Medeghini also matures Parmigiano Reggiano, which like the Grana Padano is available in all sizes as well as grated.
