the Traditionals
(aged at least 12 years) |
 |
Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena PDO (Protected Designation of Origin).
The vigour and the enthusiasm: at least 12 years of ageing, the first step of a large experience.
In the Acetaia not the air but time is rarefied so, to obtain a real Traditional, at least 12 years have to pass to get at a first complete expression of a well defined personality, still moving and developing.
Main feature of these products is a vivacious energy coming from an inviting acidity enlightened or smoothed by perfectly defined fruity and spicy scents, depending on each specific type of ageing. At the first tasting, the sweet-and-sour impact melts in extended variations and chords, giving new and unpredictable results according to food combinations, always marked by the vigorous contribution of an enthusiastic fresh taste. |
