25-Star Traditional Balsamic
25-Star Traditional Balsamic
This unadorned traditional balsamic vinegar is our top seller year after year. It is simply the taste of barrel-aged grapes -- thick, luscious, and rich. There are few foods that are not enhanced with a drizzle of this elixir but we particularly recommend trying it on strawberries, ripe summer tomatoes, or a very good, nutty cheese.

Barrel-aged condimento; Modena, Italy
Our balsamic vinegars are sourced from Modena, Italy and is obtained from the long maturation of cooked grape must from Trebbiano and Lambrusco grapes. It is then slowly aged in a battery of fine quality wooden barrels composed of oak, mulberry, chestnut and juniper until sweet and dense (high density of 1.34).
This aging gives the Balsamic a wonderful intense aroma and a dense, velvety texture, while maintaining a lightness and delicate hint of acidity (5.8%). The balance of sweet and acidic make our balsamic vinegars a culinary treasure going easily from savory (marinade, dressing, drizzle on cheese, roasted vegetables, and meats) to sweet (ice cream and berries). Many infused balsamic vinegars are a great addition to cocktails.
Pair with a robust olive oil from Italy or Spain...
