7 Caliere di Dalla Palma Matteo – Malga I lotto Valmaron – Marcesina

From Malga I lotto Valmaron, on the plateau within the Asiago DOP area, 7 Caliere di Dalla Palma Matteo continues the alpine cheesemaking tradition linked to summer transhumance. The name preserves its origin: in the early 20th century, Valerio Dalla Palma managed seven mountain pastures (malghe) in the Valmaron–Marcesina area, all gathered around a single “caliera,” the large cauldron where milk was heated. Today, the work remains faithful to that raw material: only cow's milk, transformed into Asiago in two versions, fresco and stagionato, according to the prescribed methods and timings. The company welcomes visitors at high altitude, where tastings and guided experiences connect the pasture, the herd, and the gestures of mountain cheesemaking. Ascending to the malga during the alpine grazing season is the most direct way to understand how the high-altitude landscape transforms into cheese.
