Gorgonzola is the king of the table and the kitchen. Mauri produces it with pasteurized cow milk from a single milking, adding enzymes and moulds selected for marbling. It is then aged inside natural caves for about 60 days at 4-6 °C.
Gorgonzola Dolce is as great to cook with as it is to eat as table cheese. This sweeter version of Gorgonzola has a soft texture with a limited soft blue-green marbling. Its flavour is delicate, creamy and sweet, with a hint of hazelnut.
Gorgonzola is ideal on a cheese platter or simply spread on piece of bread with a drop of olive oil. Also perfect for fresh Tagliatelle as a sauce, paired with slices of caramelized pears.
Store in the fridge and consume within a few weeks of purchasing for optimal freshness and flavour.
Wine Pairing:
Jurancon, Sauternes, Piemont, Chianti

3 reviews for Gorgonzola Dolce
Simon Au –
Definitely a “starter” blue cheese on the mild side, can be eaten on its own without even honey to balance it out. It isn’t “dolce” per se, but it is positively neutral compared to the Piccante version which is actively spicy.
Nicolas Guyon –
Great for cooking (ex: on pizza), but I didn’t enjoy it as much on its own
Paul C –
This is a rather nice mild blue cheese – blue enough for people who want blue, but mild, so it doesn’t repel others.
