»Essenza« Balsamico, 8 years, Organic

Description

Pure nature – without additives!

Particularly rich, full-bodied balsamico with subtle acidity. For this vinegar speciality, the must of regional, organically certified grapes (Lambrusco, Ancellotta, Malbo Gentile, Salamino, Marani) is cooked over direct heat and reduced to half of the initial volume (density 67-69 °Brix) by evaporation. Afterwards, the must is allowed to rest for one year and naturally becomes balsamic vinegar through the yeast it contains, which first transforms the sugar into alcohol, which in turn becomes acetic acid through bacteria. The use of a »mother of vinegar« is dispensed with, which benefits flavour formation and quality considerably. After fermentation, the »Essenza« undergoes about eight years of ageing, first in large oak barrels, then in smaller barrels made of oak, juniper, cherry and chestnut wood. The resulting full aroma with subtle acidity and notes of wood, plum and tamarind harmonises perfectly with ripe cheese, risotto (always add towards the end of preparation!), dark meat, game, stuffed pasta, desserts and grilled fruit.
