Acetaia Marchi - Balsamic Glaze of Modena PGI (250ml)

Producer's notes: 

The Classic Balsamic Glaze is an essential kitchen companion – versatile, elegant, and crafted using only high-quality ingredients, following the traditional methods of Acetaia Marchi.

Made with grape must, wine vinegar, and an impressive 35% Balsamic Vinegar of Modena PGI, this artisanal glaze captures the authenticity and heritage of Modena's renowned balsamic tradition. Its smooth, velvety texture is achieved through the careful addition of starch, creating a rich and perfectly balanced consistency.

In the kitchen:
Its dense, silky texture makes it ideal for enhancing everything from simple everyday dishes to more refined creations. Perfect for drizzling over salads, cheeses, meats, fish, and desserts, it brings both flavour and elegance to every plate.

The taste reflects the intensity and complexity of its main ingredient, delivering rich balsamic character while remaining beautifully balanced. It enhances and complements flavours without overpowering them, adding a touch of sophistication to every dish.

About Acetaia Marchi: 

Acetaia Marchi is a family-run producer with deep roots in Modena, where balsamic vinegar has been part of the Marchi family's story since 1910. Today, Massimiliano Marchi carries on the tradition, building on over a century of knowledge passed down through four generations.

What we admire most is the family's commitment to doing things the right way. Rather than focusing on volume, they take a long-term approach, caring for their vineyards, respecting traditional ageing methods, and preserving the land for future generations. The result is a range of authentic balsamics that reflect the heritage, patience, and craftsmanship that make Modena famous around the world.

ElOlivo Review: 

This Classic Balsamic Glaze is one of those everyday kitchen essentials you'll find yourself reaching for again and again. Made with an impressive amount of Balsamic Vinegar of Modena PGI, it delivers great quality, rich flavour, and excellent versatility.

We love using it in everyday salads, marinades, and dressings. It works beautifully in marinades for dishes like Mongolian chicken or kebabs, adding depth, richness, and a lovely balance of sweetness and acidity.

And don't just keep it for savoury dishes. A drizzle over your morning oatmeal with blueberries is surprisingly delicious!

Smooth, sweet, and beautifully balanced, it has a rich balsamic flavour and a velvety texture. Notes of ripe fruit and gentle sweetness are complemented by a touch of acidity, making it perfect for drizzling over both savoury and sweet dishes.
