Black Gold - Balsamic Vinegars

The Trail Master chooses balsamic nurtured in Modena, northern Italy, from the unfermented must of the Trebbiano grape, which is left on the vine for as long as possible, prior to crushing, to "snatch from nature its very last sunbeam". The must is then heated, slowly reduced until concentrated and then stored in barrels for six months to allow the sediment to settle, before being decanted into a clean wooden barrel and seasoned with a strong wine vinegar, the bacteria of which begins the fermentation and maturing process.
The balsamic vinegar is then expertly matured in traditional wooden barrels, including those of oak, mulberry, cherry, chestnut, ash and juniper to give a deep flavour and a good balance between the sweet and sour flavours that develop.
At 12 years or more it is positively amazing developing a new taste experience not to be missed!!
Do try "Century 100" a very old balsamic that reaches sublime taste heights with an almost perfect balance of sweet and sour with a touch of a cinamon note at the finish.

Try with:
Vanilla ice cream / strawberries / chilled melon or pear pieces / rare roast beef / grilled steaks and chops / grilled fish / cherry tomatoes / crisply cooked asparagus / mushrooms / etc
