Piazza Grande is a range from Mussini, one of Modena's most respected balsamic vinegar producers. The 1 Crown sits at the entry point of the range — not a lesser product, but a different one. Where the higher Crowns (3, 5, 7) gain density, sweetness, and syrupy concentration through longer ageing, the 1 Crown is lighter, fresher, and more immediately acidic, with a density of 1.1 and a lively sweet-sour balance that makes it the most versatile of the range for everyday cooking and dressing.
The vinegar is made from cooked grape must — Trebbiano, Lambrusco Grasparossa, and Ancellotta — blended with well-aged wine vinegar and matured in small barrels of precious wood. The colour is a rich, limpid brown. The aroma is pleasantly acetic with sweet notes of must. The flavour is fresh-tasting and well balanced — enough sweetness to distinguish it clearly from a standard wine vinegar, enough acidity to cut through richness and work in dressings and marinades without becoming cloying. This is the balsamic for the kitchen rather than the table — the one you cook with, dress salads with, deglaze pans with, and reach for daily without thinking twice about the cost.
Producer: Piazza Grande is a range from Mussini, one of Modena's leading balsamic producers. The Mussini family has been producing balsamic vinegar in Modena using traditional methods for generations, carefully balancing must and wine vinegar to create products with genuine organoleptic character at every level of the range.
Ingredients: Wine vinegar, cooked grape must (contains sulphites)
Storage: Ambient. Store in a cool, dry place.
Net: 250ml
Allergens: Sulphites
