Ortalli

The Ortalli have been producing superior vinegars for generations. They have five estates in Modena, Northern Italy which supply them with grapes used in the famous, award winning Ortalli brand. The grapes that Ortalli uses are from Trebbiano and Lambrusco vines, which are known for their excellence and give the Balsamic vinegars their precious aroma. The Ortalli range differs from its competitors in that it uses exclusively cooked must. The unfermented juice is placed in wooden barrels together with wine vinegar and left to mellow.
