About Balsamic vinegar of modena

Balsamic vinegar of Modena is a geographical-indication vinegar from the Modena area of Italy. Its production uses grape must, with wine vinegar also used in the protected product category; permitted methods and ageing distinguish it from traditional balsamic vinegar. It is generally dark brown, pourable, and balances sweet grape notes with acidity.

It is used in dressings, sauces, marinades, and as a finishing condiment. Retail products vary in grape-must proportion, sweetness, acidity, thickness, and ageing, so the name alone does not imply a single texture or flavour intensity. It is sold in bottles, and some versions are reduced or thickened.
