La Vecchia Dispensa 30-Anniv Balsamic (Density: 1.35)

100 ml - Modena, Italy

In honor of their 30th anniversary, balsamic vinegar makers La Vecchia Dispensa created this commemorative gem, a rich, thick balsamic ideal for drizzling.

For this vinegar, the grape has been cooked down a bit longer than usual and then aged in small, new wood barrels, before being transferred to open barrels to finish fermentation. The increased viscosity lends itself a slightly broader use than typical balsamics and an experience rich enough to convert any skeptic.

Serving Suggestions

Experience over the centuries has shown that balsamic vinegar should be the last ingredient added to any dish; except, of course, when used to dress salads as balsamic is excellent in vinaigrette. This one is spectacular on large flakes of Parmesan cheese, strawberries, steak, or ice cream. This 30th-anniversary balsamic from Italy is so full-bodied that it is particularly good with venison, as well as duck and other game birds.
