Vinegar Balsamic 10 Years

La Vecchia Dispensa's "Balsamic Vinegar 10 Years" is a premium vinegar that has been aged for a minimum of 10 years using traditional methods. It undergoes a prolonged ageing process in wooden barrels, which is essential for developing its complex flavours and smooth texture. During these 10 years, the vinegar slowly matures, gaining depth and richness as it absorbs characteristics from the various wood barrels (such as oak, chestnut, cherry).

This vinegar typically exhibits a balanced blend of sweet and tangy flavours, with a pronounced complexity and a velvety texture. The extended ageing enhances its culinary versatility.

La Vecchia Dispensa has been producing balsamic vinegar since 1978, continuing a long-standing tradition in the Modena region, which is famous for its balsamic vinegar production. The company specialises in the production of traditional balsamic vinegar, which is made from cooked grape must (juice) of local varieties like Trebbiano and Lambrusco. This vinegar is aged through a complex and lengthy process that involves ageing in a series of wooden barrels of different types of wood (such as oak, cherry, chestnut) for a minimum of 10 years.

Traditional balsamic vinegar from La Vecchia Dispensa is often used as a condiment to enhance salads, cheeses, grilled meats, desserts, and even as a finishing touch on fruits or ice cream due to its complex and sweet-sour flavour profile.

The quality of La Vecchia Dispensa's products is ensured through adherence to the regulations set by the Consorzio Tutela Aceto Balsamico di Modena, which governs the production and labelling of balsamic vinegar in the Modena region. This certification guarantees authenticity and quality to consumers.
