Aged Balsamic Vinegar of Modena

Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena P.D.O., an outstanding, world-renowned Italian specialty, owes its unique appeal and flavor to the varieties of the grapes typically grown in the Modena area, and to the artisan production method, involving skills passed down through centuries: from the cooking of the must to the annual transfer of the must between the casks in the vinegar factory. The characteristic, complex aroma has a pleasant, balanced acidity, while the traditional, inimitable flavor strikes a delicate balance between sweet and sour, with a wealth of velvety nuances.

How an unrivalled flavor is created

12 years of painstaking work: the production follows simple and precise procedures according to the TBVM regulations, which must be carried accurately, in the correct sequence, choosing the most suitable time and place. Personal touches however, do exist, these are passed down, most often by word-of-mouth, from generation to generation.

The procedure necessary in order to obtain TBVM consists of three basic stages:

 

  • the harvesting of the finest grapes of Trebbiano, Lambruschi, Spergola and Berzemino; 
  • the cooking of the must over a low heat in boilers outdoors; 
  • the aging: during long years this unrivalled specialty gains in quality until it reaches perferction.
