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 methodologies.
Thanks to the processing and the quality of the raw materials used, since May 2010, Piave cheese has obtained the Protected Designation of Origin (DOP).
It has an intense flavor that becomes increasingly stronger as it ages. In this aging process, which lasts at least 12 months, the rind is thick, consistent, and tends towards brown, while the paste is straw-colored.
Piave cheese is produced exclusively in the province of Belluno, located in the northernmost part of Veneto, nestled between Trentino Alto Adige and Friuli.
Piave is made with whole pasteurized cow's milk collected exclusively from the Belluno valleys by typical cattle breeds of the production area, including the Italian Brown, fed with local forage rich in blossoms that give the milk particular organoleptic characteristics.
The Piave DOP Vecchio Selezione Oro is excellent grated on pasta dishes or in flakes with the aperitif.
Even more surprising when paired with fruit preserves.
It is great served with structured red or white wines. Excellent to enjoy paired with walnuts and pears, perhaps accompanied by a Malvasia passito wine.
