Description
The ability to encompass 50 years of history and passion… the magic of Antonio Carpenedo with Blu ’61® has no boundaries and literally conquers the world by captivating the most demanding and skeptical palates. The art of combining this elegant blue cheese with a native wine is part of the success of this wonderful experience called Blu ’61®, aged with Raboso Passito and accompanied by fine crusted cranberries. An authentic jewel for meditating. 50 years of marriage with Giuseppina inspired Antonio to “freeze” his love in time.
Sight
Splendid fusion between the liveliness of the rind and the red of the cranberries. It has the appearance of a high-end pastry dessert. When cut, the fine and widespread marbling of green, ocean blue, can be appreciated, which runs through the cream-colored paste.
Touch
Soft, tending to creamy on the surface with the warmth of the skin, it amazes with the soft consistency of the marbled paste thanks to the action of the wine. The rind in contact with the wine assumes a firm texture and breaks into jagged-edged portions.
Smell
The symphony of perfumes touches the strings of our senses, surprising us with the harmony of the marbling that shifts to sweet. The scent of marasca cherry and dried fruit blends with the vinous notes in the rind.
Taste
The journey ends with taste. It melts and invades the palate with notable and pleasant non-intrusive erbaceous notes in perfect balance with the sweetness of the winey notes of Passito di Raboso. Pure, it contrasts with the acidity of the cranberries, in onion fondue, on meat or risotto, it has no boundaries.
