Aceto Balsamico or Balsamic Vinegar, is a protected denomination - much like a copyright. This means that only a few suppliers have earned the right to that label, and authentic Aceto Balsamico must come from one of two different regions in Italy: Modena or Reggio Emilia. From that, a cornucopia of flavors may arise, with one similarity: all of them grow finer as they age, as a fine Italian wine. Our Balsamic Vinegar of Modena and other Aged Balsamic Vinegars are rich and syrupy, dark and sweet. To understand fine Italian balsamic you have to stop thinking about it as just another condiment, and regard it like a fine wine. It's production is strictly controlled from beginning to end - think seed to bottle - by a consortium no less, which supervises the quality of the grapes, the process in its entirety, and after it is tasted, graded and sealed, it only then gets the stamp of approval - "DOP "or " Denominazione di Origine Protetta". Balsamic is aged for decades, with the finest ones over 100 years old, using a multibarrel process. The balsamic goes from small to large casks, getting more concentrated, more intense and more syrupy as it ages. The results is a rich and sweet vinegar with a glossy color and velvety texture. Use Balsamic Vinegar to finish dishes, like drizzling over a simple salad of baby greens and high-quality mozzarella burrata or with a chunk of Parmigiano; but this vinegar really shines with sweet desserts, so use it to coat fresh berries, finish ice cream and panna cotta, you'll be surprised how unexpectedly delicious this combination can be. You can buy authentic Balsamic Vinegar from Italy at Gourmet Food Store and be assured this is the best-quality, real-deal Aceto Balsamico. We'll ship it to your door specially packaged so it arrives perfectly. A great addition to an Italian gourmet food gift basket, or a classy, impressive gift for someone you really want to impress.
