Piave PDO Mezzano Cheese

Piave PDO is a hard, cooked-curd cheese produced in the province of Belluno, the northernmost tip of the Veneto region, where fodder, rich in florets, gives milk particular organoleptic features. Today, it is still produced using the ancient rules of the dairyman's art.
Piave Mezzano PDO is aged from 61 to 180 days. It has a compact, yellow-coloured curd and a sweet and tasty flavour that increases in intensity with aging. For brand awareness and consumer protection, the brand is imprinted vertically, in alternating directions, over the entire rind. It also has a pelure paper label on one flat side, which indicates the aging of the product.
