PIAVE VECCHIO. AGED 12 MONTHS. RED.
Crafted by skilled dairy artisans at Lattebusche in Veneto, Italy back in 1960, this exquisite cheese has garnered worldwide acclaim. Piave Vecchio, meaning "Aged" in Italian, elevates the inherent sweetness and richness of young Piave as it matures. Its texture resembles that of a youthful Parmigiano-Reggiano, not yet crystallized or dry enough for grating, but on its way. Exhibiting the nutty essence of Gruyere and the caramel-like sweetness akin to aged Gouda, this cheese is a testament to the art of maturation.
Sourced exclusively from the mountainous regions of Veneto, Piave Vecchio epitomizes traditional Northern Italian cuisine, whether savored on its own or grated over creamy polenta. Crafted from pasteurized cow's milk, each wheel weighs approximately 14 lbs., meticulously cut and wrapped by hand, ensuring its quality and authenticity. Indulge in this all-natural, wholesome delicacy for a true taste of Italy's culinary heritage.
