Balsamic Vinegar of Modena DOP Aged 25 Years 100ml

Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena DOP Aged 25 Years 100ml

Extravecchio is the highest expression of Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena DOP. It matures for a minimum of 25 certified years in wooden barrels and is recognizable by its gold cap. Its intense, layered character, velvety density and long, lingering finish make it a condiment to savor one drop at a time.

Slowly aged in wooden barrels

Made from 100% cooked grape must from traditional Modena varieties, mainly Trebbiano along with different kinds of Lambrusco, Spergola and Berzemino, it follows the same slow, time-honored process: cooking in open vats, natural fermentation and acetification, then annual transfers between barrels of different woods and decreasing sizes.

Over more than two decades of patient care, the vinegar concentrates and develops remarkable complexity. It has a very dark color and a dense yet free-flowing texture. The bouquet is rich and enveloping, with deep notes of fine wood, dried fruit and spice, and the sweet-and-sour flavor is intense, velvety and long-lasting.

A versatile finishing touch

Its depth makes it ideal for dishes with structure and character, such as risotto, fresh stuffed pasta, eggs and braised red meats. It is also a natural partner for well-aged Parmigiano Reggiano. It shines on sweet dishes too, drizzled over fresh fruit or vanilla gelato, and in Modena a small spoonful is traditionally enjoyed on its own as a non-alcoholic digestif at the end of a meal. It comes in the distinctive round 100ml bottle with a rectangular base and a numbered seal, which makes it a rare and memorable gift.

How to use it

Use it sparingly and always raw: a few drops added just before serving are enough. Finish a risotto or a plate of stuffed pasta with a few drops after cooking, drizzle it over braised meats or chunks of aged Parmigiano Reggiano, or pour a few drops over vanilla gelato or strawberries for an elegant dessert. To end a meal, serve a small spoonful on its own.
