Antonio Carpenedo represents one of the most important affinage realities of cheese in Italy. A story that begins in the early 1900s with his father Ernesto, who carried out the important activity of casérain, which in Trevisan dialect means the small goods seller of a grocery store.
Antonio took over the company in the '60s and began his activity, showcasing creativity and wisdom in the practice of affinage. Techniques that have led to the production of masterpieces that even the famous luxury food Harrod's has displayed in its windows in London.
The Basajo is a delicious cheese! Aged in exquisite sweet wine, Zibibbo di Pantelleria. A blue cheese made from sheep's milk in the style of the French Roquefort, with strains of Penicillium roqueforti. The cheese is then coated with white raisins.
Raw sheep's MILK, salt, rennet, lactic ferments, Penicillium Roqueforti, white passito wine (min. 1.9%) and dehydrated Chilean grapes (Chilean grapes, sunflower seed oil) (min. 0.1%) in crust.

The Basajo has a taste impact of great complexity and pleasantness. Linked to the aging in a fine sweet white wine, it carries with it all the essential aromas, hints of dried fruit, cashews, almonds, walnuts, and gentle hazelnut. Wildflower and acacia honey.
Dried fruit, apricot, white grapes, figs. On the palate, there is a delightful creaminess and a very gentle and delicate blue cheese sensation. A sinuous and caressing cheese for the palate. Great as a dessert alternative at the end of a meal, in pure French style. Or with slightly salted crostini.
Excellent to pair with sweet white wines, Zibibbo from Pantelleria, Recioto di Soave, and it can also be paired with soft distillates from aromatic grapes or moderately aged calvados.
