The P.D.O. seal of the Italian Ministry for Agricultural, Food and Forestry Policies and the unmistakable and characteristic cruet, defined by law, especially designed by “Giugiaro Design” and only available in the 100 ml format, ensure full compliance with the P.D.O. regulations throughout the whole production chain, as well as high quality standards in terms of organoleptic parameters, which are regularly checked for each bottling batch so that consumers are fully guaranteed.
However, the rigorous production regulations rightly provides a certain margin for each “character”: every single “Acetaia” or even every single battery produce their own type of vinegar.
The small label on the cruet is the symbol of the “Acetaia” manager who has skilfully interpreted and interacted with the elements of nature to contribute to produce Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena: the grape must (the only ingredient), the wooden casks (the containers) and the fermentation, maturation and ageing processes (the natural microbiological transformations).
At ACETAIA DEL CRISTO we are fully aware of and strongly believe in these values, as clearly shown by the important awards received by our label and selection in the course of the years.
