Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Reggio Emilia PDO, Bronze Label

The most “vinegary” of the three Traditional Balsamic Vinegars. Its fragrance is delicate and it has a pleasantly intense acidity.

Vinegars with the Bronze label are popular for the pleasingly distinct sensation of volatile acidity.

 

This balsamic vinegar is the ideal choice for carpaccio, dips for raw vegetables, and marinades. It can be used warm, to add extra flavour to meat and fish at the end of the cooking process, or for sauces and dips.

Its subtle, delicate fragrance and good acidity make it ideal for drizzling over meat and fish carpaccio, raw vegetables for dips and in marinades.

It can be added to the pan to give extra flavour at the end of the cooking process to shellfish, lamb rib chops, chicken breasts and rare red meats.

Top chefs used it to prepare pan juices for game, poultry and fish (especially cod).

Warmed and blended along with butter and Parmigiano Reggiano, it makes a delicious condiment for ravioli.

Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Reggio Emilia PDO, Silver Label

Products awarded the Silver Label have generally been aged for 6/7 years longer than those with the Bronze sticker; they are thus more concentrated, which attenuates the perception of acidity, offering a pleasant, complex sensation on the palate. 

The aroma is rich and intense aroma and tends pleasingly towards a sweet fragrance.

 

This balsamic vinegar is ideal as a condiment, as well as for almost all first and second course dishes.

It is delicious in mayonnaise and sauces, or as an accompaniment to boiled meats or fish dishes, as well as pasta and rice salads and foie gras. Also ideal with piquant and mature cheeses, especially Parmigiano Reggiano.

Served hot, it is especially tasty with fillet of beef, and is excellent for bringing a creamy texture to risotto dishes, especially with vegetables or scampi.

The particularly persistent flavour makes it a delicious end to a meal, enjoyed on its own, although its extraordinarily rich organoleptic properties also make for surprising, memorable pairings with cheeses and desserts.
