Gorgonzola Dolce PDO by Castelli is a semi-soft blue cheese known for its creamy texture and mild flavor. This cheese is made from pasteurized cow's milk and aged for a minimum of 50 days.
Its distinctive blue veins are created by the addition of Penicillium glaucum mold, which imparts a gentle tanginess and a slightly sweet finish. Gorgonzola Dolce PDO carries the Protected Designation of Origin (PDO) status, ensuring it is produced in a specific region of Italy following traditional methods.
