Vintage  20
Positioned as a premium, everyday cheddar, Cathedral City Vintage 20 is set to drive sales and growth by attracting new consumers to the brand whilst enhancing the current brand equity.

The product has been developed using the expertise and high quality craftsmanship of the Dairy Crest’s cheese graders.
