Mussini - Vecchio Ducato

Mussini - Vecchio Ducato

Italy

The Mussini family has a very extensive line of balsamic vinegars. The oldest have matured for no less than 100 years on wood. This youngest one is 3 years old. The coin on the front of the bottle indicates the age of the balsamic vinegar. Each coin is equal to 3 years aging in wooden barrels. So you can see how old a balsamic vinegar really is. Young balsamic vinegar is perfect to use over salads, in combination with a nice olive oil. It has a fresh - sour taste. Because of its freshness and spicy tones it is also ideal for sauces, reducing, and making stew.

Mussini, 3 Y

Mussini, 3 Y

Italy

The Mussini family has been making Balsamicico since 1909. They were the first to set up a vinegar factory in Magreta, near Modena. They still work very traditionally and have their Balsamic matured on 7 different types of woods such as oak, walnut, cherry and juniper wood. The grape varieties used are Trebbiano and Lambrusco. The youngest Mussini is 3 years old and is still fresh in its acids compared to the older Balsamicis. Very suitable for salads.

Anima Aurea - Vimum Acre

Anima Aurea - Vimum Acre

Spain

Vinum Acre is a delicious blend of old sherry vinegar, dessert wine and grape must, all from the Pedro Ximenez grape and courtesy of the Anima Aurea winery. A vinegar perfect for cold dishes and salads, but also great to marinate freshly caught fish. Then again, pretty much any protein will benefit from a little drizzle. You could also contemplate experimenting with an assortment of cheeses. Vinum Acre is a beautiful product of Spain.

San Carlos - Gourmet

San Carlos - Gourmet

Spain

San Carlos – Gourmet is a balsamic-style vinegar made exclusively from the must of Pedro Ximenez — and exclusive grape variety. These grapes are exposed to the sun to increase the sugar concentration, followed by a long process of acidification. Finally, it ages for at least 5 years in American oak barrels, following the age-old system of Criaderas and Soleras. This mild, bitter and sweet vinegar is perfect for seafood, meat, cheeses, and fruit. Pretty much anything!

Mussini, 9 Y

Mussini, 9 Y

Italy

An older Balsamico of the Mussini family, made from the Trebbiano grape. The Balsamico begins its maturation in a large barrel and will change to a smaller barrel every year. This gives it its remarkable intense taste and the balsamic will become sweeter and sweeter. A good Balsamico can be matured for up to 100 years on the smallest barrel used, 15 litres. This 9 year old fits very well with grilled vegetables, such as eggplant and bell peppers.
