In 1889, Armando De Nigris founded the
small vinegar Company which was passed to his son, Marcello
in 1951. Today, the enlarged and modernized De Nigris
factory continues to operate as a family run business
producing a full line of vinegars including Balsamic
Vinegar of Modena, Flavoured Vinegar and Wine Vinegar
for export. We are proud to present our special line
of Italian vinegars featuring our aged Balsamic Vinegar
of Modena. Our experience as a family company enables
us to bring the Flavors of the past to the pleasure
of new cuisine. |
For centuries, the vinegar known as "Balsamic" has
been considered a pride possession of the Italian people,
rarely leaving the homes where it was made. Balsamic Vinegar
begins with the crushing of sun-ripened grapes. This grape
juice called "must” is concentrated through simmering
in copper caldrons over wood fires until it is reduced to
about 40% of its original weight. This densely concentrated
liquid is placed in wooden barrels of oak, cherry, mulberry,
chestnut and juniper for aging. As the years go by some of
the liquid in the barrel evaporates and some is absorbed into
the wood. Each year the vinegar is transferred into smaller
barrels of different woods. This processing and the master
Vinegar maker's hands-on experience gives Balsamic Vinegar
the delicate flavor of the woods and the sweetness of the
sun ripened grapes. |
