15-Year-Old Balsamic Vinegar Fourth Centenary Edition
250ml
Brand: Gran Deposito Aceto Balsamico Giuseppe Giusti
This special quality balsamic vinegar was created to
celebrate four centuries of production by the Giusti family.
Obtained from the most precious grapes, aged for many years in
barrels dating back to the 1800's, full bodied with an
unmistakeable aromatic bouquet and a lasting sweet aftertaste, it
is an exceptional addition to many recipes, grilled steak, sautéed
chicken, a wedge of Parmesan, fresh strawberries or ice cream or
just directly from the spoon! Our producer - Gran Deposito Balsamic
Vinegar by Giuseppe Giusti We hope that you enjoy our selection of
Balsamic Vinegars. We wanted to bring you the best quality prize
winning vinegar at great prices and to be able to assure you that
you won't find any mention of extracts, sugars, preservatives or
colourings on our labels. There are many brands and types of
so-called balsamic vinegar, most are cheap and artificially
coloured and thickened. The real, mouth wateringly good ones are a
little more expensive, thanks to the superior production method and
lengthy ageing process undertaken, and are a world apart from their
imposters. Our producer is Giuseppe Giusti in Modena. Seventeen
generations of his family have been producing high quality balsamic
vinegar since 1605 and have won numerous prizes (including 14 Gold
Medals) over the centuries. They were the authors of the first
documented recipe for the production of Balsamic Vinegar and are
the custodians of the most extraordinary existing cask reserve,
composed of invaluable century old barrels. Giuseppe Giusti and his
family select good quality Trebbiano and Lambrusco grapes and
slowly reduce the grape juice in copper kettles until it is thick,
dark and sweet. No caramel is added to sweeten and colour it - this
is the industrial way to mimic age. Giusti do not reduce by speedy
pressurisation either, as do many industrial producers of
balsamic.
