Description
The vinegar to use every day on any kind of salad, sautéed or grilled vegetables. A young but excellent quality Balsamic Vinegar of Modena: obtained by reducing wine vinegar and cooked must over direct heat in the open boilers. It does not contain any type of preservatives, colouring or additives.
Fragrant with a light sweet note at the same time.
HOW IS THIS VINEGAR MADE: Juice from the grapes (referred to as must) is simmered in copper kettles over wood fires for days. The water evaporates, intensifying the flavor of the must and reducing the liquid. Once cooled, this must is then aged in large wooden barrels, where it becomes a complex liquid layered with flavours of the earth, the grape and the wood. In Modena, barrels sit in the hot attics of Italian houses for decades, the perfect atmosphere for the aging process to occur.
