There is only one way to make Aceto Balsamico di Modena P.G.I., and it is established by the Production Specifications.

It must be produced exclusively in the vinegar cellars of the provinces of Modena and Reggio Emilia, using musts obtained from the 7 most cultivated grape varieties in Emilia Romagna – Lambrusco, Sangiovese, Trebbiano, Albana, Ancellotta, Fortana and Montuni – which guarantee perfect acidity and sugar levels. To these musts are added wine vinegar and a percentage of wine vinegar aged for at least 10 years. Aceto Balsamico di Modena P.G.I. matures in casks of noble woods in the vinegar cellars, an environment with ideal temperature and aeration conditions.

Our Aceto Balsamico di Modena P.G.I. is made in our vinegar cellar in Vignola, at the foot of the Modena hills, using must content, maturation time and minimum density, which exceed those set by the Specifications. It is the result of our experience, skilled craftsmanship, rigorous selection of raw materials and love for our work and for quality.

Aceto Balsamico di Modena P.G.I. is the result of the slow maturation of high-quality wine vinegar and cooked and concentrated grape musts in vats, barrels and casks made from different woods and for different periods according to the recipe. Our finest Aceto Balsamico di Modena P.G.I. matures in casks made from three different woods, each one giving the vinegar specific characteristics: oak with its mild vanilla aroma, chestnut with the aromatic rusticity of tannin and cherry with the sweet aroma of fruit. The casks are kept at room temperature in the vinegar cellar to take full advantage of seasonal weather variation. Heat favours fermentation and concentration, while cold favours sedimentation.
