Vecchia Dispensa's 8 Year Aged Balsamic Vinegar

A great everyday vinegar.

Working just off the historic square in the center of the old town of Castelvetro, southwest of Modena, Italy, Roberta Pelloni and her husband Marino Tintori make a range of great vinegars. Although Americans tend to gravitate toward sweet caramel-flavored balsamics, Marino is quick to emphasize that “the key to great Balsamico is balance.” Exaggerating sweetness is an easy way to enhance appeal and reduce the need for proper blending and aging. You might not notice it at first, but after many uses, overly sweet balsamics get kind of dull. Not so with those from the Tintoris. We've been selling them for over a decade, and they have a legion of followers who return to them again and again.

Their 8 year aged balsamic is many of our customers’ favorite everyday vinegar. (You'll see the density of 1.20g/cm³ on the bottle, but not the age of the vinegar because of some funny Italian laws.) It’s affordable and strikes an elegant balance—lush with a patient fruitiness and just a touch of the barrel’s aging beginning to show. A great buy.
