The competition and exhibition of Bastardo and Morlacco cheeses from Grappa, at Malga Campo Croce
The Rassegna dei Formaggi del Grappa, also known as the Mostra del Bastardo e del Morlacco, is held at Malga Campo Croce, below Cima Grappa, in the municipality of Borso del Grappa in the province of Treviso. The stars are Bastardo and Morlacco del Grappa, two excellent cheeses born from an ancient tradition, still carried on with passion today by the malghesi (mountain pasture farmers) of the plateau.
The most anticipated moment of the day is the competition that awards the best cheeses: a true challenge among producers who pass down ancient local traditions and protect biodiversity through the conservation of the mountain environment and livestock practices that respect nature's rhythms. The review is a recognition of the hard work of the Grappa malghesi.
Alongside the competition, the day offers tastings of cheeses and products from the mountain pastures, in an exceptional natural setting among the pastures of the Grappa Massif. Organized by A.Pro.La.V., the review is an opportunity to discover the mountain cheesemaking culture of Veneto and the link between mountain pastures, landscape, and gastronomy.
The 2026 edition of the Rassegna dei Formaggi del Grappa confirms the event at Malga Campo Croce, traditionally on the first Sunday in August. The day, organized by A.Pro.La.V., features the competition awarding the best Bastardo and Morlacco cheeses produced by the Grappa malghesi, along with tastings and mountain pasture products, in the setting of the pastures below Cima Grappa.
