• This bottle holds 4 times the amount of the normal 10 yr bottle, mostly sold to restaurant chefs.

• Versatile use for salads, meats, and your own recipes.
• One of our favorite all purpose balsamic!

This bottle holds 4 times the amount of La Vecchia Dispensa 10-yr balsamic, and normally we only sell it to restaurant chefs. We've decided to offer this incredibly delicious deal to all of our customers! This relative youngster is oh so much more versatile than any balsamic made with wine vinegar, regardless of its age, or price. As they will tell you at La Vecchia Dispensa, creating a young versatile balsamic with the right balance of acidity and sweetness is a true art, the art of blending - without using any wine vinegar of course. Just the right amout of old balsamic with its sweet but complex flavor profile needs to be added to younger,balsamic with its fiesty acidity. That's what they've done with their "Quadrato" - called 10-yr balsamic here in the States to give people a sense of the agesd vinegars used in the blending. It has a refreshing level of acidity, despite the fact that it is made solely from cooked grape must. Sweet and sour act in harmony toward a slow, dry finish. This is one of our favorite, all-purpose balsamics - its depth of flavor gives it a versatility that outshines all cheap imitators, and many authentic balsamics as well.

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

• Aged 15 years
• Produced from the cooked must of Trebbiano grapes
• Aged in small casks of prized wood
• Highly Aromatic

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