Basajo cheese from Veneto, Italy, is made from raw ewe's milk and immersed in sweet Sicilian wine for approximately three weeks. This unique process imparts a velvety texture and enticing honeyed undertones to the cheese. Basajo captivates with its fruity flavour, offering a delightful taste without saltiness and intense bite.

For a perfect pairing, enjoy this artisanal cheese with ripe pears and a full-bodied wine like Sauternes or Passito di Pantelleria.
