Academia Barilla offers Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale di Modena, aged for either 12 or 25 years.
The vinegar is made according to local tradition by artisanal vinegar producers in Modena and is only produced in limited amounts.
The rich aromas and unique, complex flavors come from bunches of Trebbiano di Spagna and Lambrusco grapes used to make the vinegar. The aging process, which varies from a minimum of 12 years to over 25, gives the vinegar its characteristic intensity and full body.
