Bologna-Modena (Balsamic vinegar farm)
Balsamic vinegar is a tradition of Modena and it is a gourmet condiment. For all food lovers is not something to be missed.
Balsamic vinegar is made from cooked grape must and aged for a minimum of 12 years and it can go up to 24 years or more. It is slowly poured from a bigger barrel to smaller ones made from a different variety of woods. Different woods will give the vinegar its peculiar flavour. Some producers like to age the vinegar only in cherry wood or chestnut wood to give to the vinegar a truly unique flavour that you can only find here in Modena.
