Created by world‑famous, three‑Michelin‑star chef Massimo Bottura, Villa Manodori “Artigianale” Balsamic Vinegar of Modena IGP is an authentic expression of Modenese tradition. Trebbiano grape must and select red‑wine vinegar are patiently aged for nine years through a succession of oak, chestnut and juniper barrels. The result is a glossy, deep‑brown elixir with a lush, syrupy body, seductive aromas of dried fruit and wood, and a perfectly balanced sweet‑tart flavor that lingers on the palate.
Use this gourmet vinegar exactly as Chef Bottura does in his kitchen—drizzled over seasonal greens, roasted vegetables, grilled meats or ripe strawberries; stirred into risotto or pan sauces; or splashed on Parmigiano‑Reggiano, fresh mozzarella, even vanilla gelato. A single spoonful elevates burgers, asparagus, seared scallops or cheese‑filled ravioli finished with butter and a shower of Parmesan.
