Marzolino di Pienza with truffle is a luxurious Italian cheese hailing from Tuscany, particularly the area around the town of Pienza. This cheese is traditionally made from sheep’s milk, giving it a rich and creamy texture with a slightly nutty flavour. Marzolino is named after the month of March (“Marzo” in Italian), as it is traditionally produced during the springtime when the sheep graze on fresh, lush pastures, which imparts a unique freshness to the milk.

The addition of truffles elevates this cheese to a gourmet level. The earthy, aromatic notes of the truffles are infused into the cheese, creating a complex flavour profile that balances the mild, buttery taste of the sheep’s milk with the intense, savoury depth of truffles. Marzolino di Pienza with truffle is semi-soft, with a pale, ivory-coloured interior that often has visible flecks of truffle throughout.

This cheese is often enjoyed on its own, paired with a glass of fine red wine, or as part of a cheese board. It can also enhance dishes like risotto, pasta, or salads, where the truffle-infused flavours can shine.
