BelGioioso CreamyGorg Gorgonzola

BelGioioso CreamyGorg Gorgonzola is a soft blue-veined cheese. Made from fresh local cow's milk, it is handcrafted and aged 90 days in special caves. BelGioioso Master Cheesemakers hand-rub each wheel with salt and pierce small holes into the rind of the cheese, allowing air to penetrate, facilitating the growth of beneficial mold. This care and craft creates an exceptionally earthy flavor and creamy texture. This specialty cheese is exclusively made by BelGioioso.
