Wine and cheese
Cheese with Riesling Italico
Morlacco del Grappa
Local tradition Slow Food says to eat Morlacco, a tender and very salty cheese, with light white wines. A light, dry white raised in steel without oak refreshes the palate between salty bites.
Light dry white wine, Veneto: Cantina di Custoza Bianco di Custoza DOC
Formadi frant
Our pick Formadi frant is soft and savoury, with cream in the paste and a piquancy that varies from one cheese to the next. A white fermented on its skins for weeks or months has the tannic grip and acidity to stand up to it.
Skin-fermented whites (Vitovska, Malvasia, Friulano and blends), Friuli-Venezia Giulia: Gravner Bianco Breg
