La Rinascita’s young and aged Juncu
La Rinascita describes its Juncu as a semicooked sheep’s-milk pecorino, matured for at least 30 days. The producer distinguishes two flavour profiles without setting a separate age threshold for each.

Two producers, two recipes
La Rinascita uses sheep’s milk for its semicooked Juncu. Fanari’s Juncu Brillo combines sheep’s and goat’s milk, then receives a grape-pomace finish.
