A young balsamic vinegar, Agro di Mosto is made ONLY of cooked grape must, the same process used for the Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale, but extracted younger, after only 2-3 years. The result is a vinegar that is quite tart but still delicate, full of fresh aromas, fruity and fragrant.
Perfect for vinaigrettes and salad dressings
Ingredients: Organic acetified cooked grape must from local varietals. Acetified in oak barrels. May contain natural sulfites, not added. Does not contain colorants, preservatives and thickeners.
THE PRODUCER: Andrea Bezzecchi of Acetaia San Giacomo is recognized as an award-winning producer of balsamic vinegar in the Reggio Emilia region of Italy. With passion and knowledge passed on from father to son, Andrea is the keeper of tradition and original techniques for the production of aged balsamic vinegar. San Giacomo represents passion, one thousand years of culture, precision, rigorous production methods and slow and meticulous maturation of the balsamico.
The balsamic begins with only one ingredient – the cooked grape must of local Lambrusco and Trebbiano grapes. The grape must is cooked over an open fire and reduced. Then the long aging process begins using traditional wooden barrels of decreasing size and of at least four different types of wood. The evolution of the balsamic, ultimately expressed through its perfumes and taste, is an incomparable and extraordinary experience.
Andrea has expanded his production to include wine vinegars produced with organically grown local grape varieties. The San Giacomo vinegars are never diluted and produced with the traditional long oxidation time at natural temperatures. These vinegars retain the desired levels of high acidity and flavor.
