Hidden among the memories and dusty papers of an attic, an old family recipe is revealed... "dal 1891" is born, a Balsamic Vinegar of Modena PGI that recalls the flavours and scents of the past.
The result of careful selection of the grapes, special cooking of the must and refinement in fine oak casks, "dal 1891" is a dense, velvety product; the soft bouquet and full body complement each other in a harmonious balance. The sweet taste of cooked must blends with the pleasantly woody aftertaste and gives an intense emotion to the palate.
Aged Balsamic Vinegar of Modena PGI "dal 1891" rests for over 3 years in fine oak barrels, which give it body and a pleasant vanilla aftertaste.
It is ideal for enhancing cooked and raw vegetables, risotto and savoury pies, meat and fish, as well as fresh fruit and ice cream. To be used exclusively raw, it refines and enhances every dish.
Since 1891 Aceto Balsamico del Duca has been dedicated to the production and promotion of Aceto Balsamico di Modena IGP and Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena DOP. A tradition that has been handed down for five generations, closely linked to the territory, guaranteeing a unique product made from selected, high quality cooked grape musts and exclusively Italian wine vinegar.
It was 1891 when Adriano Grosoli registered his "Premiata Salumeria" in the register of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Modena.
In the 1970s, Adriano Grosoli, the founder's grandson, decided to distinguish his balsamic with the image of Duke Francesco I d'Este, among the most famous and passionate producers of the balsam that was highly prized at the court of the Este family.
In 2016, Aceto Balsamico del Duca reached a double milestone: on the occasion of its 125th anniversary, it was fully admitted to the register of the Unione Imprese Centenarie Italiane.
