Aceto Balsamico di Modena IGP is produced in the provinces of Modena and Reggio Emilia, in the Emilia-Romagna region. It is one of the Italian gastronomic specialties most appreciated by gourmets all over the world.
Balsamic Vinegar of Modena is a particular type of vinegar produced with grape must. Specifically, Aceto Balsamico di Modena IGP is made with cooked or concentrated grape must, wine vinegar and a percentage of 10 years old aged vinegar. Its incredible flavor comes from the maturation and aging process. This particular type of vinegar is aged in wooden barrels from 60 days up to 3 years. If the aging lasts for more than three years, the product will be called Balsamic Vinegar of Modena Aged.
Like many other traditional Italian products, Aceto Balsamico di Modena IGP is protected by the European Union with the PGI (Protected Geographical Indication) trademark, which means that its grapes can only come from 7 typical vines, listed in the Production Regulations, and its production is strictly codified.
