Who we are

“La Fonte Nuova” is in Casacalenda, in the province of Campobasso, an ancient village in Molise in the Cigno Valley, in a picturesque setting where hills, fresh air, unspoilt fields and plants continue to offer the possibility to reap the fruits of the land and, using them well, produce excellent cheese with raw milk.

An indefatigable passion for agro-pastoral tradition, love for the land, together with a desire to put to use substantial experience, spurred the owners, Giovanni and Tina, on to found the cheese workshop in 2000.

Today the business can be proud of its respected, very high qualitative standards, its constant and integrated innovations in technology, its unique artisan expertise, and its careful search for and selection of the main ingredient “Milk”, collected by local families who are respected and acknowledged for their hard work.

Over the course of time, the “La Fonte Nuova” label has established itself and earned the favour of consumers who are mindful of the benefits of a healthy and balanced diet, of respect for the environment and of the best workers’ conditions.
