The caves

The caves are the real feather in De’ Magi’s cap. The place where much of the magic happens, or alchemy as Andrea would say! They were born from a dream, that of refining cheeses inside real natural caves, but at the same time preserving a high level of environmental healthiness and quality control of the product, because cheeses, unlike wine for example, are in direct contact with the external environment and very little is needed to change their evolution. It is from here that the dream becomes reality with the first drawings in which Andrea imagines how his “aging places” should be built and how the microclimate control system should work. But Andrea is Tuscan! And as we said in his story, a sense of detail and aesthetics are part of the DNA that this land gives you from birth. If they were desired and imagined as caves, then caves they will be, and that’s how he designs them, with barrel vaulting and stone walls. In 2011, the aging caves were finally born where even today, some of De’ Magi’s most iconic cheeses mature.
