Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Reggio Emilia PDO Gold Label 100ml – Gift Box

109,00 €

In the heart of the hills of Reggio Emilia, in Montericco, where the castle still looks out over the plains, a product steeped in nearly a thousand years of history is born. As early as 1046, according to historical accounts of balsamic tradition, Emperor Henry II was captivated by a special vinegar crafted in the lands of Matilda of Canossa.

It is from this ancient heritage, woven of grape must, wood, time, and patience, that Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Reggio Emilia PDO comes to life. In Montericco, the must from native Reggio grapes is simmered gently and left to mature for years in batteries of small casks crafted from various woods, where each passing season nurtures its evolution.

The Gold Seal (Bollino Oro), aged for at least 25 years, represents the most complex and precious expression of this tradition: dense, velvety, deep, and lingering, with a refined harmony of sweetness and acidity.

Best enjoyed in its purest raw state, it is extraordinary drizzled over Parmigiano Reggiano and aged cheeses, robust meats, and desserts. Above all, it offers a true taste of Reggio Emilia, its terroir, and a heritage treasured through the centuries.

Description

In the rolling hills of Reggio Emilia, within the hamlet of Montericco in Albinea, a timeless excellence is born: Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Montericco. It is crafted in the shadow of the ancient castle overlooking the entire Po Valley—a place steeped in history and charm, where on the clearest days, the gaze stretches all the way to the silhouette of the Alps.

Here, land and tradition unite under the expert guidance of master vinegar makers, who passionately safeguard knowledge passed down through the centuries. From local grape must slowly simmered over an open fire to patient aging in wooden casks, every step is nurtured with devotion and care.

The origins of this nectar trace back to 1046, when it was presented as a treasured gift to emperors and nobility. Today, as then, every drop captures a harmonious balance between artistry, patience, and nature: dense, lustrous, with an intense bouquet and a complex, balanced palate.

Every bottle represents a small-batch artisan creation, truly unique and unrepeatable, shaped by the rhythm of the seasons and the intuition of the master vinegar maker.

A rare, authentic creation born of an extraordinary place, sharing the true soul of its terroir with every single taste.
