Queso de Murcia or Murcian Al Vino is a pasteurised goat's milk cheese from the Murcia region of Spain. It is a pressed, washed in red wine, uncooked cheese aged for a minimum of 45 days in case of wheels over 500 grams or 30 days for others.
On the outside, the rind appears purple, characteristic of red wine baths during maturation. The pate is semi-soft with small eyes, ivory white, slightly acidic, and creamy to taste.
Please note all cheeses are hand-cut, therefore the weights listed are approximate. We work very hard to cut them as accurately as we can.
