Antigorio al Prunent Cheese is a “home-made” Ossola toma cheese - that is, from the valley - produced by a small Ossola dairy: it is soaked for a short time in the must of the area's typical vine, “Prunent” (a variety of Nebbiolo), which does not penetrate the cheese, but flavors it and colors its rind. This is a recent process that combines a cheese and a wine with centuries of history behind it.
For the aging of Toma Ossolana al Prunent, Guffanti has recovered in the small mountain village of Oira, not far from Domodossola, a 17th-century cellar attached to the local dairy turnaria.
Chef's Advice
Suggested pairings are definitely full-bodied red wines, some aromatic honey and fresh fruit such as pears. This cheese is perfect enjoyed with rye bread or on polenta, ideal for melting to enjoy a delicious and refined winter dish.

Typology
Antigorio Prunet Cheese
When great-grandfather Luigi Guffanti began aging Gorgonzola in 1876, his genius intuition was the purchase of an abandoned silver mine in Valganna, in the province of Varese. Five generations have passed, the attention to the artisanal quality of the cheese product and the passion for careful ripening continue to characterize the Guffanti-Fiori family, consolidated to this day as one of the best ripeners in the world.
