The world’s most consumed Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) cheese, Grana Padano has been handcrafted in Italy since 1135. Grana Padano PDO is available in three vintages: from six to nine months with a mild and delicate flavour, over 16 months with a more robust flavour but retaining its mildness, and “RISERVA,” the highest quality, matured for over 20 months, with the intense and fragrant aroma that makes it a true connoisseur’s cheese.
