Valserena’s 24-Month Solo di Bruna® Parmigiano Reggiano

The timeless classic, perfect for every day. Valserena’s 24-month Solo di Bruna® Parmigiano Reggiano is the most beloved and versatile aging in our production—a perfect balance of sweetness and savoriness that captivates from the first bite.

Unique milk, an unrepeatable cheese

Produced exclusively with fresh milk from Brown Swiss cows, our 24-month aged cheese stands out from any other Parmigiano Reggiano on the market. Brown Swiss milk is naturally richer in protein and kappa-casein B—the protein variant ideal for cheesemaking—which gives the cheese a finer texture and a more complex flavor than cheeses produced with standard milk.

Organoleptic characteristics

After more than two years of aging in our historic cellars in Gainago di Torrile (Parma), the 24-month aged cheese develops:

• Color: uniform straw yellow
• Texture: crumbly but not overly dry, with slight traces of tyrosine crystals
• Aroma: notes of melted milk, fresh butter, and fruit
• Flavor: sweet, balanced, with elegant savoriness and a medium aromatic persistence
• Mouthfeel: melts in the mouth, perfect both grated and in flakes

How to use it in the kitchen

The 24-month is the most versatile aging of all:

• Grated over pasta, risotto, soups, and minestrone—it melts perfectly without overpowering other flavors
• In flakes for aperitifs, cheese boards, and appetizers
• In recipes—fondues, stuffings, soufflés, gnocchi
• For children—its delicate flavor makes it ideal for little ones
• As a snack—rich in protein and calcium, it is a nutritious and satisfying snack

Recommended pairings

Structured white wines, Franciacorta or traditional method sparkling wines, dry Lambrusco. Excellent with delicate mustard fruits, acacia honey, fresh fruit like pears and grapes, or fig jam.
