DUKE MODENA, BALSAMIC
Documents dating back to the 16th century show that by this time, balsamic vinegar was a prized ingredient reserved for the court of the Duke of Este (Italy) and the chosen few, to whom he would give it as presents and menus from this period show that it was always present at meals. Indeed, its popularity was such that the whole of the west tower of the Ducal Palace in Modena was dedicated exclusively to its production.

ACETAIA LEONARDI, SABA
Acetaia Leonardi’s Saba is unique. The family’s Trebbiano and Lambrusco grapes are grown in the 7 hectares surrounding the family home and acetaia. After a gentle crushing, the juice and pulp is coarsely filtered and the mosto (mash),is cooked (cotto) in an open copper vat at 175-200°F for a day or two, reducing it to about a third the volume. The concentrated mosto cotto is then cooled and placed in large oak casks which were previously inoculated with a mother of vinegar, a batch of vinegar alive with a culture of aceto-bacteria. The Saba will stay in the casks for almost 4 years, giving a deep complexity to the Saba, without converting it to vinegar.
