Piave DOP Vecchio Selezione Oro 1/4 of a shape 1.5 kg
The Piave DOP is the most famous of the typical cheeses from Belluno. Born from the experience of local master cheesemakers, it is still produced today in accordance with traditional methods.
Thanks to the processing and quality of the raw materials used, since May 2010, Piave cheese has been awarded the Protected Designation of Origin (DOP).
It has an intense flavor that becomes increasingly pronounced as it ages. During this aging process, which lasts for at least 12 months, the rind is thick, consistent, and tends toward brown while the paste is straw-colored.
Piave cheese is produced exclusively in the province of Belluno, located in the northernmost part of Veneto and nestled between Trentino Alto Adige and Friuli.
The Piave is made with whole pasteurized cow's milk collected exclusively in the Belluno valleys from typical local cattle breeds, including the Italian Brown, fed with local forage rich in flowers that give the milk unique organoleptic characteristics.
