Il Vessillo is the standard-bearer of Rocca Toscana Formaggi's classic range: a Tuscan pecorino made simply and well, from pasteurized sheep's milk.

The aged paste is hard and granular, persistent in flavor but naturally sweet, with sheepy, nutty and grassy notes.

Enjoy it on its own, with honey or fresh fruit, grated over pasta, or with a glass of Chianti or Sangiovese.

Tuscan pecorino made by Rocca Toscana Formaggi in Arezzo, Tuscany, from pasteurized sheep's milk with rennet and cheese cultures, with no other additions. The aged paste is hard and granular. The rind is treated with rapeseed oil and is not edible.

Ingredients: Pasteurized sheep's milk, salt, rennet, cheese cultures. Rind treated with rapeseed oil — not edible.

Contains: milk.

Aged Pecorino from Tuscany

Wonderful mild tasting Pecorino! Lovely nutty undertones, not too salty. Great addition to any charcuterie board or sprinkle on your favorite pasta dish!

Wonderful cheese….. Fantastic Service !

We have ordered so many times from Dolceterra and the cheese always arrives in less than a week to way over here on the other side of the world in Hawaii. Love the selection of cheeses and enjoy them several times a week. Great prices and always a pleasure to buy them online. Grazie mille per tutto !!!

great cheese/ great service

I had never had this type of cheese before. Checked reviews and Picked it- It is fantastic. A note on service- I placed an order that included this and rosso Parmesan. I was concerned about weather here- it was over 110 F so they held the order for 2 weeks. The cheese arrived in perfect shape!
