The cheese Gionè by La Casearia Carpenedo was born from an idea of Antonio Carpenedo to honor the figure of Giorgio Onesti, a person who dedicated his life to the research and selection of gastronomic delicacies. In the 1970s, he collaborated with Antonio as a representative, and it was thanks to him that the first forms of Carpenedo cheeses knocked on the doors of specialty food stores all over Italy, particularly in the market of Rome. During one of the long talks with Antonio, which they usually had after dinner until late at night, he suggested registering the famous brand Ubriaco.
To create Gionè, Antonio decided to start from a base of raw cow's milk cheese aged for at least 5 months produced in the Venetian mountains, and he decided to mature it in his caves with a top-secret treatment he created himself that covers the crust of the cheese. During the aging period, each wheel takes its shape and is enriched with particular aromas that take us on a journey through wild herbs, flowers, ripe fruit, spices, and underbrush.
The cheese Gionè by La Casearia Carpenedo (which we present in its whole form on this page) is a cheese that tastes like pasture, like mountain and carries with it the charm of distant spices; the alcoholic notes that enhance the pride and elegance of this cheese remind us of the reason behind Gionè. Perfect with a peaty Whisky or chestnut distillate.
To the eye: velvety appearance, the brown of the special coating envelops the irregularities of this unique cheese. Its curves resemble sweetly sown hills. In hand: extraordinary contrast; the dry and delicate crust opposes the softness of the paste. On the nose: in the Gionè paste, the essence of pastures is present, and in the crust, Antonio Carpenedo takes us on a fascinating and mysterious journey. A sensory game, because the ingredients remain a secret of Antonio.
