Acetaia Leonardi 15 Year Aged Balsamic Vinegar Condimento Balsamico Dispensa 15 Overview

Acetaia Leonardi 15 Year Aged Balsamic Vinegar Condimento Balsamico Dispensa 15Balsamic Vinegar has been hailed as the eighth wonder of the world. Its magical flavor is an honest reflection of the painstaking process of production.Founded in 1871 in Magreta di Formigne, a few miles north of the town of Modena, the Acetaia Leonardi is run by Giovanni Leonardi and his son, Francesco. The Leonardi's respect for tradition, their skill and their dedication to the art of aceto balsamico result in vinegars consistently rated outstanding within the consortium.Authentic traditional balsamic vinegar is made from boiled grape must that undergoes natural fermentation and slow acetification, followed by a long aging process in wood casks. Balsamic starts with cooking the juice of the white Trebbiano and Lambrusco grapes--the must--over an open wood fire. As the must cooks down, the sugar level rises as the water evaporates and the flavor intensifies. The fermentation begins when previously aged balsamic vinegar is added to the must.As times goes by, and according to the taste and palate of individual producers such as Giovanni Leonardi, the fermenting liquid is transferred to progressively smaller barrels. This sequence of barrels of different sizes and woods, such as oak, walnut, ash, acacia, chestnut, mulberry, etc., is known as a "batteria." A batteria could consist of as few as three barrels and as many as ten. Part of each barrels contents - but never all of it - is decanted to the next smaller barrel, again based on the judgment of the producer. 15-year Condimento: Condimentos are packaged with the official seal of the Produttori Condimento around the neck of the bottle. Condimentos are guaranteed to be aged in wood and made of all natural ingredients. Producers are free to create the style and flavor profile they wish. Aromatic of molasses, highly viscous, tasting of raisins and prunes. Pour over grilled flank steak or pork loin.
