Sigillo Verde is the fruit of an ancient tradition and an artisanal process that makes it unique. Its value lies in its aging method, which takes place in antique oak barrels from wineries. These barrels, now abandoned due to age, carry with them a history and character that give the balsamic vinegar an unparalleled complexity and depth of flavor.
But why use old barrels over new ones? The answer lies in the ability of abandoned barrels to impart a series of aromatic and flavorful nuances to balsamic vinegar that would otherwise be impossible to achieve. Over the years, the barrels already used have absorbed the aromas and tannins present in the wines that had been aged in them, which they then transfer to the balsamic vinegar during its maturation period. This transfer process gives the final product a complexity and richness of flavors that make Sigillo Verde balsamic vinegar a true gastronomic treasure.
