Italian Gold

At Upper Bench Winery & Creamery we hand-craft several washed-rind cheeses.  This beauty we call our Italian Gold is a stunner.  With pale hay interior this semi-soft cheese has a firm supple, satiny texture with a bold tangy flavour.  Our Italian version of Upper Bench’s Gold is flavoured with the aromatic flavours of an Italian kitchen with a blend of sun-dried tomatoes, onion and garlic.

We hand-craft all of our award winning cheese here at Upper Bench, using 100% Canadian pasteurized milk.

Our Upper Bench Italian Gold is made in ten inch rounds weighing in at a little over two kilograms, which we then slice into wedges.
