There are aromas and flavours that can turn an entire city into a celebration. From 11 to 14 September 2025, the city of Udine will once again come alive for the 31st edition of Friuli DOC, the major annual event that brings together the very best of Friuli’s food and wine tradition.
And of course, Montasio PDO cheese — one of the true symbols of our region — could not be missing! Once again this year, it will take centre stage with three special tasting events designed to introduce visitors to all the nuances of a cheese that, through its flavour, tells the story of the strength and heritage of our local cheesemaking tradition.
