Experience the rich history and craftsmanship of Parmesan cheese with a guided tour of a traditional, family-run dairy using sustainable, organic methods. Your guide will introduce you to their closed-loop system, starting from organic feed in the fields to the high-quality milk used for authentic Parmesan. You’ll witness the entire cheesemaking process, from curdling and shaping to forming the iconic wheels.

Next, explore the aging warehouse, where over 6,000 cheese wheels are stored for months, developing complex flavors. Learn how aging from 12 to over 36 months enhances texture and taste.

The second part of the tour is a tasting of Parmesan at different ages, from mild to sharp, nutty profiles. This highlights how flavor evolves over time. To complement the cheese, enjoy a pairing with DOC Lambrusco, a sparkling red wine from Emilia-Romagna, with bright, fruity notes and refreshing acidity.

Excellent tour

Our guide was excellent-good sense of humor, knowledgeable and excellent English. We were there early to watch them pull the cheese out of the bath at the start, which I highly recommend. Be forewarned that if you are sensitive to smell, there are lots of overpowering ones happening all around!

The morning tour was great! We got to see them taking the cheese curd from the vats and putting it in the rounds. The process was fascinating and the fact that every part of the milk is used for a purpose. There was no waste and the product you got to taste at the end was spectacular. The quality control is quite impressive.
A well done cheese tour

We arrived in time to see the cheese being made. You have to schedule the tour early, around 8 to 8:30 to see the cheese being made. They only make 10 wheels per day so when they are finished, that is it for the day. The history and the process of Parmesan cheese is explained and seeing the storage is impressive. Recommended.
Nice experience

Intimate visit to family owned parmigiana reggiano factory

This is an intimate visit with a family owned parmigiana reggiano factory that truly respects the tradition and the process. They are a "closed loop" production, producing the hay that feeds the cows, raising and milking the cows, and making the cheese. The tour walks you through the small facility that makes the cheese and shows you the different stages of production. The end is a tasting of cheese of different ages paired with a lovely sparkling red from Modena. Tess is very knowledgeable about the family factory, parmigiana reggiano, and Modena food production. She was great with questions and truly enjoys interacting with visitors and talking about Modena food. It was the number one experience of our Italy trip!
Highlight so far

Our tour guide was fantastic and very engaging with our 2 kids which made it more special for us. You wouldn’t think as a cheese farm tour as something to do as a highlight but it certainly was.
Love the tour!
