Caseficio dell'Alta Langa is a medium-scale cheesemaking operation that specializes in the production of cheeses made to traditional Italian recipes, but within a modern facility.

As the cheeses mature, this texture breaks down even further until a large part of the cheese is entirely soft.

Flavors are light and delicate, tasting of creme fraiche, mushrooms and grass with a slight tang. La Tur is very accessible and balanced and makes it an ideal cheese for a wide variety of wine pairings - especially those with honey or floral notes.
