Gianni Calogiuri: Vincotto “12 Years Aged” (250 ml)

Vincotto is a traditional Italian condiment obtained by slowly simmering fresh grape must until it transforms into a thick, naturally sweet, and richly aromatic reduction. This Gianni Calogiuri Vincotto Vinegar, aged for 12 years, is produced in the Salento area of Puglia, Italy, using grape must from Negroamaro and Malvasia Nera grapes. Through a slow acetification process in oak barrels, following centuries-old techniques, it develops an elegant and harmonious flavor profile with notes of dried fruit, figs, plums, and subtle spice. Unlike conventional vinegar, vincotto retains a natural sweetness that makes it exceptionally versatile. It enhances a wide variety of dishes, including risottos, soups, roasted meats, fish, cheeses, fresh fruits, and desserts, adding depth without overpowering other ingredients. Often referred to in English as cooked wine vinegar or sapa vinegar, vincotto is a treasured expression of Italian gastronomy. Its distinctive character comes from careful open-flame reduction and long aging, preserving both authenticity and tradition. Crafted in Italy and carefully imported by Stefan and Sons, this Gianni Calogiuri Vincotto Vinegar invites you to experience true Italian excellence in every drop. Elevate your culinary creations with a condiment that embodies heritage, craftsmanship, and flavor.
