Review of Balsamic Vinegar Of Modena Extravecchio Gold Seal - Over 75 Years Old

Balsamic Vinegar Of Modena Extravecchio Gold Seal - Over 75 Years OldAs the description notes, balsamic does indeed "growth" more valuable as it ages. What the review fails to note is that unlike fine wine, it also grows ever more alcoholic. One nip of this stuff, and you'll be unfit to drive for hours. To put it simply? It will mess. you. up.

If you know that going in, you may be able to withstand the effects of this heady brew.

Do take note of the product's two year shelf life, however. After two years, enough oxygen will undoubtedly have penetrated to turn this vinegar into wine. Not a good wine, not a fine aged wine, but a blend in the vein of Two Buck Chuck.

In short, use it sparingly but use it quickly, then buy some more. It's slightly cheaper than just burning your money!

Product Description
Like a fine aged whisky or wine, Balsamic growths more valuable as it ages; this one is like liquid gold. Obtained through the traditional long-aging process originated in Modena, Italy, this vinegar is dark and rich, made from specially selected grapes that are reduced to a must (all the elements of the grapes before fermentation has occurred), and fermented for a year, and left to mature for over 75 years in special wooden casks. The extremely long maturating process makes this particular Balsamico incredibly rare and precious. This rich, full-bodied and smooth Extravecchio (Extra Old) inspires reverence amongst the connoisseurs, and should be used with care.
