Produced exclusively from cooked grape must of local Trebbiano and Lambrusco grapes, Leonardi’s Traditional Balsamic Vinegar undergoes a meticulous aging process in a series of progressively smaller wooden barrels made of oak, cherry, chestnut, juniper, and other noble woods. This slow aging process allows the vinegar to develop its complex structure, deep color, and unparalleled depth of flavor. Each bottle is sealed and numbered by the Consortium of Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena, ensuring its purity and authenticity.
