Luís Nazaré tells us that the experience of a Vale da Estrela cheese is “mandatory”.

“In life, there are irreplaceable pleasures. The good table is one of them. And cheese is one of its immemorial icons. At the beginning, middle or end of the meal, a good cheese excels at any table.

There are them for all tastes, of all textures, fragrances and flavors, from the most varied origins. Each person has their own taste, but for me a Boursin, a Stilton or a Serra are unparalleled. Ours, Estrela’s, perfectly combines everything that a great delicacy should contain – distinction and character.

Vale da Estrela began its journey less than two years ago, on a path of rigor and close connection to traditional techniques and the regional production base. This PDO does not easily compromise. On the contrary, it observes all the requirements – from the origin of the milks to the transformation process – that a great brand must fulfill. Hence its justified ambition to become a global reference.

Buttered or matured, the experience is a must. Accompany it with wine – red, white or port – and let yourself be carried away by the pleasure of the senses.”
