Barricato cheeses

What is hiding round a mountain hairpin bend on a hot summer’s afternoon? A nuisance or an opportunity? Antonio Carpenedo falls into a special category of men who don’t see a slow cart of hay pulled behind a rumbling tractor as an obstacle. It is not advisable to overtake and the fragrance of the freshly-cut hay excites Antonio’s senses and imagination. The straight road provides a chance to ask the farmer to pull over. In a world ruled by haste, indifference and cold human relations, Antonio surprises the local mountain dweller with a somewhat unconventional request: to fill the boot of his car with the fragrant mountain hay. The farmer is happy to oblige and won’t accept any money, it is a priceless gesture. Antonio is still not quite sure how he will use it, but from that moment on his efforts will transform into the work of art known as Vento d’Estate®
