Division 3.7 Specific rules concerning labelling

Labels must bear the following wording: ‘Denominación de Origen “Queso Manchego” ’ (‘Queso Manchego’ Designation of Origin). When the cheese is made with raw milk, this can be indicated on the label by means of the word ‘Artesano’.

The marketed product bears a numbered secondary label issued by the Regulatory Board and affixed in registered undertakings in such a way that it cannot be reused and every piece of ‘Queso Manchego’ has on one of its faces a casein label with a serial number, affixed at the moulding and pressing stage.
