Dark Organic Balsamic Vinegar

Description

Our Organic Balsamic is the highest quality balsamic condiment grade in the world. It’s unique and exclusively made from Italian Trebbiano, Albana and Montuni grapes which add body, complexity, and richness that Trebbiano grapes alone cannot achieve.

The grapes are entirely hand-0picked by experienced workers who select only the sweetest clusters for maximum brix content (that’s the measure of sugar) and created through natural fermentation. It contains a blend of grape must with 100% Italian Barrel Aged White Wine Vinegar which are both made from Albana, Trebbiano, and Montuni grapes grown in the Modena region of Italy exclusively.

The grapes are left to dry in the sun (a very old artisan method) or up to 15 days – an exclusive family practice of our balsamic maker. During this period, the natural sugar, flavor, and body in the grapes is enhanced. This proprietary drying period results in an approximate volume loss of 10% through evaporation.

The traditionally cooked grape must is lightly filtered to remove any skins from the cooked must before being placed into new white oak barrels for maturation and aging to an amazing 1.28density and 4% acidity. Certified to be free from any additives including thickening agents, sugar from sources other than grape just, colors, dyes, and preservatives.

Ingredients: Grape must, white wine vinegar, naturally occurring sulfites.
