Sweet or dolce Gorgonzola
This is a semisoft cheese, mild and buttery, with an ivory-yellow color and blue-green marbling.
Aged or naturale Gorgonzola
This cheese is firmer, and more assertive in flavor and aroma.
Mountain Gorgonzola
This variety is aged for 6 to 12 months; the longer aging produces an intense flavor, and a cheese with well-developed veins.
