Colavita's Balsamic Vinegar of Modena contains the sweet, fruity flavors of Trebbiano grapes. Balsamic vinegar is the perfect component to salad dressings. Also, try adding balsamic vinegar to slow-cooked foods like soups or beans, or use as a deglazing liquid for meat-based sauces. The IGP seal of authenticity ensures that this product has been produced in Modena, Italy following the strict traditions perfected in the province of Modena over many centuries. A superior balsamic vinegar is determined by the quantity and quality of aged grape must used in commercial production. This special "12 Star" vinegar contains more than double the amount of grape must required by Italian Law. The "12 Star" seal is a unique quality standard developed by Colavita that promises an enhanced blend of taste, sweetness, and acidity. This product is also gluten free.
