About the Cheese
Ubriaco al Prosecco is a beautifully aromatic cow’s milk cheese, infused with the delicate character of Prosecco and the winemaking traditions of the Veneto.
During maturation, the cheeses are first aged in grape pomace, then bathed in Prosecco DOC wine, allowing them to absorb its gentle, floral character. This careful process gives the cheese its distinctive personality.
On the palate, it is fresh and lightly aromatic, with a graceful balance between milky richness and bright, fruity notes. A subtle yet unmistakable hint of green apple runs through the flavour, bringing lift and elegance to every bite.
The texture is supple and smooth, while the rind carries a delicate fragrance from the wine. The finish is clean, lively and quietly complex.
A natural choice for an aperitif, it is best enjoyed simply, allowing its refined character to shine.
About the Producer: Moro Formaggi
Founded in 1930 by Luigi Moro, this family-run dairy began by collecting and supplying milk to local households before turning its focus to cheesemaking in Oderzo.
In the 1980s, Sergio Moro revived traditional ageing methods, enhancing cheeses with ingredients such as hay, herbs, truffle and saffron to bring depth and character.
Today, the dairy is known for its innovative blue cheeses, refined with raisin wines, grappa and liqueurs, combining heritage and creativity in cheeses now enjoyed around the world.
