Description
Hercle is Tenuta Il Radichino’s youngest artisan sheep cheese, handcrafted exclusively from grass-fed sheep’s milk on the Pira family’s farm in Ischia di Castro, central Italy.
Produced using traditional farmhouse cheesemaking methods, Hercle is lightly matured to preserve the fresh, sweet character of premium sheep’s milk while developing a smooth, supple texture and delicate buttery flavour. The result is an elegant cheese that highlights the quality of the milk and the craftsmanship of the cheesemakers rather than extended ageing.
Every stage of production—from grazing the sheep on natural pastures to cheesemaking and maturation—is completed entirely on the estate, ensuring complete traceability and an authentic expression of the Lazio countryside.
Its fresh, approachable flavour makes Hercle exceptionally versatile. It can be served on artisan cheese boards, paired with fresh fruit, incorporated into gourmet salads or enjoyed with premium breads and olive oil. Its mild profile also makes it an excellent introduction to authentic Italian sheep milk cheeses.
Produced in limited quantities using traditional farmhouse methods, Hercle is ideally suited for gourmet cheese boutiques, premium supermarkets, department stores, luxury hotels, fine dining restaurants and specialty food retailers seeking authentic Italian artisan cheeses with broad consumer appeal.
It pairs beautifully with Vermentino, Pinot Grigio, Sauvignon Blanc, Prosecco, fresh pears, figs, artisan honey, toasted almonds and premium extra virgin olive oil.
