Vinegar Organic Balsamic 8 Years (High Density)

La Vecchia Dispensa's Organic Balsamic Vinegar 8 Years (High Density) is a premium aged balsamic vinegar that reflects the company's commitment to quality and traditional craftsmanship. This balsamic vinegar undergoes a careful ageing process for a minimum of 8 years in wooden barrels. During this time, the vinegar slowly develops its rich and complex flavours, intensifying with each year of maturation. The term "high density" refers to the viscosity and concentration of the vinegar. After 8 years of ageing, the vinegar achieves a thick, syrupy consistency with a balanced sweetness and acidity.

This balsamic vinegar is prized for its versatility in culinary applications. It can be drizzled over salads, grilled vegetables, meats, and even desserts like strawberries or ice cream. Its concentrated flavour means a little goes a long way in enhancing dishes.

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 8 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.
