Acetaia San Giacomo ‘Agro Di Mosto Balsamic’ (Reggio Emilia, Italy; 250ml)
Acetaia San Giacomo · Agro di Mosto · Reggio Emilia, Italy · 250ml
Agro di Mosto is a young balsamic vinegar made only from cooked grape must, drawn after two to three years of aging. Tart yet delicate, it offers fresh, fruity aromas and a fragrant character that brings brightness to everyday cooking.
Producer & Craft
Andrea Bezzecchi of Acetaia San Giacomo carries on the balsamic-making traditions of Reggio Emilia, with techniques and knowledge passed from father to son. Agro di Mosto begins with organic cooked grape must from local grape varieties and is acetified in oak barrels. Its shorter maturation gives it a fresh character rather than the concentration of a long-aged traditional balsamic.
Flavor & Kitchen Suggestions
Expect lively tartness, delicate fruit and fresh aromas. Use it in vinaigrettes and salad dressings, where its acidity can balance olive oil and brighten leafy greens. Suggested uses also include a finishing splash over roasted vegetables or a simple tomato salad.
