The story of La Casearia Carpenedo begins with Ernesto Carpenedo. His son, Antonio continued in the family business and after hearing war stories of cheese being hidden in vats of wine to stop it being taken by invading forces, he began dipping the cheese into vats of grapes. Antonio Carpenedo created Blu 61 and offered it to Giuseppina whom he married in 1961. A cheese to fall in love with that reflects the passion they both have for cheese. This creamy blue cheese is ripened for sixty days before being matured with fine Raboso Passito wine and red cranberries that harmonise to create a very well structured, elegant blue cheese.
