Balsamic Vinegar of Modena Extravecchio D.O.P. 25+ years – 100ml

Extravecchio : level of aging over 25 years

I Solai Traditional balsamic vinegar is made of cooked grape must, matured by slow acidification derived from a natural fermentation and progressive concentration by a long aging.

The must is made exclusively from grapes Trebbiano “di Spagna” and Lambrusco “salamino” from Santacroce, and is naturally concentrated using a simmer before being placed in wooden wellas to begin the ten-year aging process and aging.

It is aged in small barrels made from different woods to infuse a great complexity of flavors and characteristics.

TASTING NOTES:

Dark brown in color, full and shiny; aroma complex but well- balanced, penetrating and persistent, characterized by an acidity obvious but pleasant and harmonious; sweet, sour and well- balanced, aromatic, intense and very persistent.

PAIRINGS:

Ideal on Parmesan long seasoning; goes well with complex and flavorful meat dishes, but also on raw meat or foie gras. The tradition also reccomends it in the amount of a teaspoon as extraordinary digestive after a meal. Appreciated by connoisseurs for its ability to balance on the palate of the four primary tastes: sweet, salty, sour and bitter
