Vinegar cellars are receptacles of memories.
The past merges with the present, in the shadow of barrels made from different kinds of wood passed down to us from noble families that once lived in the provinces of Reggio Emilia and Modena, each conferring a unique flavour to our Balsamic.
The word “balsamic” immediately conjures up the idea of a powerful remedy, a balm for the body and mind. In the lands of Modena, this magic spell becomes an expression of sheer flavour.
Fernando Pensato’s vinegar making process takes place in secluded areas, far from inquisitive eyes. Here the seasons follow each other year after year, the natural temperature variations bringing about the gradual formation of this black nectar.
The final product after this long, undisturbed period of aging is a dark liquid whose brilliancy, clarity, texture, aroma and quite unique taste, blending sweet and sour, make Balsamic Vinegar an unforgettable gastronomic experience.
