The Product
The sublime Balsamic vinegar of the Acetomodena company is the company’s reserve vinegar and fully represents all the values of Acetomodena; it ages for 12 years.
It was created to honour and remember the first place in the Palio della Ghirlandina, which is not a palio with horses but a real competition between vinegar factories in Modena and the surrounding area.
THE TASTING
At first glance, it appears straightforward and spontaneous, like any good self-respecting Emilian! Digging deeper, however, you can perceive the more elegant part that satisfies the most refined palates. A few drops are enough to be conquered.
FOOD PAIRINGS
This vinegar is excellent with meats, mature cheeses and fish. Just a few drops are enough.
The Company
The Acetomodena company is a family business passed down from generation to generation. The current owner of the vinegar factory, Paolo Vecchi, has given an innovative twist to the business. Paolo is very present in all production phases of his vinegar and can often be found in the vinegar factory checking the quality of his products.
Since he was a child, Paolo loved scents such as woods, rooms, fields and rows. These essences took root in him and transformed into the beautiful selection of vinegar and balsamic in Acetomodena products.
The company’s vinegar factory is something unique that is worth a visit. From afar, the vinegar factory looks like a white vessel containing lots of barrels of various sizes, which preserve and refine the company’s beautiful vinegar.
