BellaVitano Cheese

BellaVitano Cheese is a proprietary cheese produced by the Sartori Company, a family-owned company based in Plymouth, Wisconsin. The cheese is inspired by traditional, Italian farmstead cheese and has a unique flavor profile that is rich, creamy, and nutty.

History

The Sartori Company was founded in 1939 by Paolo Sartori and Louis Rossini. The company initially focused on producing a variety of Italian-style cheeses, but in the 21st century, they began to experiment with new cheese varieties, leading to the creation of BellaVitano Cheese.

Production

BellaVitano Cheese is made from the highest-quality cow's milk. The cheese is handcrafted and undergoes a unique aging process. The cheese is bathed in a brine solution, which helps to develop its distinctive flavor and texture. After the brining process, the cheese is aged for several months. During the aging process, the cheese develops a rich, creamy texture and a complex flavor profile that is both sweet and savory.

Varieties

There are several varieties of BellaVitano Cheese, each with its own unique flavor profile. These include:

• Original BellaVitano: This is the base cheese from which all other varieties are created. It has a rich, creamy texture and a nutty, fruity flavor.
• Balsamic BellaVitano: This variety is soaked in balsamic vinegar, which gives the cheese a sweet, tangy flavor.
• Merlot BellaVitano: This cheese is soaked in Merlot wine, which gives the cheese a rich, fruity flavor.
• Espresso BellaVitano: This variety is hand-coated with freshly roasted espresso, giving the cheese a slightly sweet, slightly bitter flavor.

Pairings

BellaVitano Cheese pairs well with a variety of foods and beverages. It can be served with crackers, fruit, and nuts, and it pairs well with both red and white wine. It can also be used in cooking, where it adds a rich, creamy flavor to dishes.

Awards

BellaVitano Cheese has won numerous awards for its quality and flavor. These include the World Cheese Awards, the American Cheese Society Competition, and the United States Championship Cheese Contest.
