Product Description
The older the balsamic, the greater the depth and richness of flavor. This balsamic is made from the juice of Trebbiano and Lambrusco grapes that are only cultivated surrounding Modena, Italy. The must is cooked slowly and then develops character by aging in wooden casks. The result over time is a dense, sweet, and pleasantly acidic balsamic with intense flavor.

This is one of the best 20-year balsamic vinegars for the price. I'm American-Italian with a fussy palate inherited from my Dad, and this sweet, syrupy balsamic is amazing on salads, fruits, vegetables ..... just about anything you can think of. I don't use it in cooking or marinating because it seems wasteful to me.
Try it - I think you'll enjoy it!
Ciao Tutti !!

Pretty good. Price is cheap for a 20yr old balsamic.
Not quite as good as a Modena.
Well worth the price. December 26, 2007

I have been looking for good balamic for a while and this is the best I've bought so far. It is thick, sweet and a great partner with olive oil and bread. I highly recomend this product.

I purchased this La Piana Balsamic Vinegar for a fabulous French foodie-friend with a fiendish obsession for balsamic vinegar. Now, I should tell you that, having grown up in Provence, my friend has impeccable taste and an extremely refined palette. Since I have never tasted this brand of balsamic vinegar, I was a little nervous to order it.
No worries.
My friend is crazy about La Piana. She tells me she is using it on everything - even ice cream. She has declared this the best vinegar she has ever tasted.
Note, The Balsamic Vinegar Cookbook by Meesha Halm is a great cookbook that offers tons of recipes. I purchased this for my friend as well and she raves about it. Here's a link:
