Description
“La Vecchia Dispensa” (The Old Pantry) was a large wooden cabinet, where years ago we used to keep heavy terracotta jars containing our precious Balsamic Vinegar. Hence the name of our workshop in the picturesque medieval village of Castelvetro di Modena.
Today we invite you to visit this place full of history and tradition, to savor with us the magical atmosphere of a real vinegar factory and taste the Balsamic aged in the ancient scented wooden barrels that have seen it mature for generations.
“La Vecchia Dispensa” is among the oldest factories of Modena, that still produces Balsamic Vinegar according to the ancient tradition. Our collections tell a long family story, handed down with devotion: every product you purchase is unique and unrepeatable, starting with raw materials up to the packaging.

This is an authentic small oak cask containing 1 litre of our Balsamic Vinegar of Modena IGP. The oak cask will improve the product its intense flavour, giving you always a better product.
Red Label Balsamic Vinegar of Modena has always been one of our most appreciated vinegars. It was born as a bet when our Balsamic Vinegar Master wanted to create the right balance to enhance the delicacy of vegetables.
It’s characterised by a fresh and intense frontal acidity, ables to enhance the notes of oak, cherry and chestnut woods on the palate. Did you know that the aromas of balsamic vinegar depend solely on the woods used for the barrels in which it ages? I invite you to read the dedicated article on our blog. In fact, Balsamic Vinegar does not contain artificial flavours, but it is precisely the barrels that give the product its characteristic aromatic notes.
