The Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena is made from cooked grape must matured by a long and slow vinegarization process. The natural fermentation is followed by aging in a series of casks made from different types of wood.
The result is a dark liquid with a fluid and syrup like consistency. Its flavor is
sweet and sour in perfect proportion.
Each bottle of La Piana Traditional Balsamic, Extra Vecchio (Gold Seal, aged a minimum of 25 years) contains 100ml. It is presented in a gift box which includes a comprehensive booklet explaining the vinegar making process as well as providing various recipes for use. |
