A cow’s milk cheese, first made in Parma, Italy. Parmesan is now also made in the U.S. It has a distinctive flavor, both sharp and delicate at the same time. Parmesan is often said to “melt in your mouth” when eaten. It is milder than Romano, with less sharpness. Because Parmesan adds flavor without overpowering food, it is often used as a topping for pastas and cooked dishes, as well as in salads and salad dressings. Serve with red wines such as Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, or Chianti.
Wine Pairing Suggestions:
Ecco Domani Chianti

Belissimo! A robust pairing of Italian favorites. A rustic chianti, like Ecco Domani, perfectly compliments a melt in your mouth parmesan.
