Product Description

In July 2009 Aceto Balsamico di Modena (Balsamic Vinegar of Modena) obtained the Protected Geographical Indication status from the European Union. This status is established to protect the producers of certain products as well as to protect the consumer from imitations. Obtaining the PGI status brings with it the obligation to adhere to certain rules some of which pertain to labeling. Therefore, you will find that some of your favorite products now have redesigned labels that may initially cause some confusion.The PGI law does not allow numbers, years, or descriptive adjectives such as Gran Riserva, Riserva, Selezione, and Speciale tobe printed on the labels. Only the word "Invecchiato" (aged) may appear on the label as long as the product is aged for a period of at least three years in casks, barrels or other wooden receptacles. As a result, most labels have been redesigned with the colors Gold, Silver, and Bronze to distinguish the different qualities.The Fattoria Estense Silver Label Balsamic Vinegar of Modena is made according to a secret family recipe. This Balsamic is produced using a traditional fermentation process and is then aged for 10 years in wood barrels.Fattoria Estense Silver Label Balsamic Vinegar is a dense (somewhat less dense than the 12 year old), syrupy and sweet balsamic whose rich flavor and deep amber color will captivate you. This Aceto Balsamico di Modena is meant to be drizzled on aged cheeses such as Parmigiano Reggiano or Grana Padano, or over fresh mozzarella that is also lightly drizzled with a fine extra virgin olive oil. Sprinkle it over fresh picked strawberries for the perfect combination of sweet and sour. Prosciutto and filet mignon are elevated to a heavenly status when dressed with this addictive Balsamic Vinegar as are salads and marinades.Each wax sealed Farmacia style bottle contains 8.5 fluid ounces (250 ml.) of Aceto Balsamico di Modena, aged 10 years by Fattoria Estense from Ital
