Sometimes it takes several generations to achieve perfection in the thing one loves. But when the legacy of tradition, creativity, and craftsmanship bears its magnificent fruit, it becomes obvious that it was worth the effort. A prime example of this is the preparation of the original balsamic vinegar, which tolerates no haste and, as a result, rewards the producer with a premium product that is highly valued on a global level. This year, the classic Saporoso Balsamic Vinegar of Modena of the famous producer Acetaia Malpighi Srl became the winner of Luxury Lifestyle Awards in the category of The Best Luxury Balsamic Vinegar in the World.

The history of the outstanding brand Acetaia Malpighi Srl goes back to 1850 when Pietro Malpighi started a small production of Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena in his attic and passed on to his son the recipe for making genuine natural vinegar. It was the beginning of a long journey that continues to this day. A precious heritage of knowledge and respect for tradition passed through five generations of the Malpighi family, and today Acetaia Malpighi has 3000 barrels in which the real Balsamic Vinegar of Modena DOP matures. A strong tradition, combined with passion, the desire for innovation, and cutting-edge gastronomic research, gives life to a product that captivates the taste buds of gourmets the world over.

The award-winning Saporoso Balsamic Vinegar of Modena is made from cooked musts of Lambrusco Grasparossa and Trebbiano Modenese grapes.  The spice is aged for 6 years in refined Durmast barrels and 6 months in steel barrels. This light balsamic vinegar tastes great with fresh, cooked, and grilled vegetables, roasted meats, game, and as an exclusive ingredient to refine everyday dishes.

“We are delighted to be recognized by the esteemed Luxury Lifestyle Awards committee as the producer of one of the best balsamic vinegars in the world. This accolade is very important to us because we put a piece of our heart and soul into our product,” said Massimo Malpighi, President of Acetaia Malpighi.

Acetaia Malpighi Srl, for more than twenty years, has provided the opportunity to get to know the Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena. It includes free educational tours in which you can learn about the technologies and secrets of balsamic vinegar production, vertical tasting, and collaboration with chefs and culinary schools to find new and refined uses for its products.
