The word “ubriaco” in Italian
means drunk, it is therefore easy to understand that the Venetian “ubriachi”
Cheese category gets its name from the treatment that it is put through; in
fact the cheeses are immersed for some days in red wine. This process gets
its origins from the necessity to preserve the cheeses from parasites, in
fact many years ago the cheese makers rubbed the rinds with wine or dregs of
pressed grapes. As this cheese is immersed in wine, it is more delicate and
less intense with respect to other ubriachi, that are immersed in dregs of
pressed grapes.
