The story
Nino and Ambrogio take you to discover the family's historic dairy and the passionate work of modern shepherds. With them you will feel the love they put into cheesemaking, try making cheese with your own hands and, with all the time and care it deserves, taste their milk and saffron products.
All of this in a natural setting where the needs of people and animals are deeply respected. And maybe... you will also take a walk through the D'Angelo family's orchard and olive grove.
