Caseificio Montecoppe is a traditional Parmigiano Reggiano PDO producer located within the Boschi di Carrega Natural Park, near Parma in Emilia-Romagna. The dairy operates as a fully integrated farm, controlling the entire production chain from forage cultivation and animal feeding to milk processing and cheese aging.
Milk comes from their own herds, primarily Italian Friesian and Brown Alpine cows, ensuring consistency, traceability, and a strong link to the local environment. Parmigiano Reggiano from Montecoppe is produced in limited quantities and aged in various stages, from younger expressions to long-aged versions exceeding 40 and even 80 months.
The cheeses are known for their balanced yet expressive profiles, combining clean dairy notes with aromas of dried fruit, nuts, and evolving umami depth as aging progresses. Caseificio Montecoppe represents a model of sustainable, terroir-driven cheesemaking, where landscape, animal welfare, and traditional know-how directly shape the character of the final product.
