Grape pomace, also known as marc or vinacce, consists of skins, seeds, and stems leftover after grapes are pressed for winemaking. Here’s how it infuses the cheese:
Aging on Pomace Beds: The cheese wheels are placed on beds of fresh or dried grape pomace during the aging process. This allows the cheese to absorb the subtle flavors and aromas of the pomace over time.
