Pecorino Cheese from Abriola

Pecorino di Abriola

Pecorino di Abriola is an artisanal sheep's milk cheese produced by Vincenzo in Abriola, in the province of Potenza. Made with raw milk from sheep raised mainly on pasture, it captures all the aromas and flavours of Val Camastra, one of the areas of Basilicata most renowned for cheesemaking.

Raw Milk and Cave Ageing

Pecorino di Abriola is made using traditional methods designed to bring out the very best qualities of the milk. After production, the cheese is aged in a cave, where it develops a distinctive white rind thanks to the beneficial moulds that form during maturation. When cut, it reveals a compact paste with a few small holes and a delicate hazelnut hue. Its aroma carries intense notes of alfalfa, clover and the wild herbs and plants that characterise the pastures of Val Camastra.

Ideal for Aperitifs and Cheese Boards

Pecorino di Abriola is perfect enjoyed on its own or accompanied by rustic bread, honey and artisan fruit preserves. It pairs wonderfully with a good red wine and truly shines as part of a board of cured meats and cheeses, offering an authentic tasting experience that tells the story of Basilicata's pastoral heritage.
