Murcia al Vino DOP is a goat’s milk cheese from the Murcia region of Spain, protected by the Designation of Origin (DOP) status. The cheese is aged for a minimum of 45 days. During maturation, it is soaked in local red wine, which gives the rind its characteristic wine-red colour, distinctive aroma and flavour.
The red wine used is produced in Murcia from the local ‘Monastrell’ grape variety. It lends the cheese floral aromas and subtle tannins that complement the delicate character of the goat’s milk. Murcia al Vino DOP is unique as the only European DOP goat’s milk cheese soaked in red wine.
The texture is soft, creamy and elastic, with a dense, ivory-coloured interior. The flavour is gently tangy and moderately salty, with notes of goat’s milk, cream, flowers and red wine lingering on the finish.
Murcia al Vino DOP is delicious on its own or as part of a cheese board. It pairs particularly well with fruity, medium-bodied red wines such as ‘Monastrell’, ‘Garnacha’ or other reds with moderate tannins.
Ingredients: pasteurised goat’s milk, salt, calcium chloride, lactic cultures, rennet, preservative – egg lysozyme.
