From our 10 hectares of vineyards, including 5 of trebbiano modenese, we select the best grapes for the production of our balsamic vinegar.

After cooking it is moved inside the barrels of each battery, where it remains to age for many years until it reaches the smallest barrel and from there it is then bottled. It is a product that requires a lot of patience. In addition to traditional balsamic vinegar, for some years now we have also been producing PGI certified balsamic vinegar with less aging but at the same time highly appreciated for its versatility and taste similar to the traditional one. Claudio then developed other condiments to try to create products very similar to traditional balsamic but which required less aging. If you want to discover the true shades , the real differences between traditional and commercial Balsamic, come and visit us.
