Viva Oliva Dark Chocolate Balsamic Vinegar - 375ml (12.7oz) - Premium Quality - 100% Natural - Barrel Aged Gourmet Balsamic from Modena, Italy

Located in Santa Barbara, California, Viva Oliva was established in 2010. A family owned specialty food business, they are dedicated to sourcing and retailing the highest quality extra virgin olive oils, balsamic vinegars and gourmet, artisan foods. The extra virgin olive oils sold by Viva Oliva and used for their fused and infused oils, all comply with the highest quality standard in the world, known as Ultra Premium (UP). They source these exquisite oils from both the southern and northern hemispheres of the world, thereby ensuring they always keep the freshest products in stock. Viva Oliva's balsamic vinegars are all made in Modena, Italy, the cradle of balsamic vinegar production. Their Dark Balsamic Vinegars are made with Trebbiano grapes and on occasion with some Lambrusco grape must. The balsamic undergoes cooking and caramelizing in a copper kettle over an open wood fire before being aged the traditional Solera Method - Modena, Italy. The balsamic is placed in old wood barrels that previously held older batches of aged balsamic vinegar. These barrels, similar to wine barrels, are made from different woods including oak, chestnut, acacia, cherry, mulberry, ash and juniper. These woods add character to the vinegar. Viva Oliva's White Balsamic Vinegars are made by blending white grape must with 100% Italian barreled aged white wine vinegar, both made from Albana, Trebbiano and Montuni grapes which grow exclusively in the region of Modena, Italy. The traditionally cooked grape must is then lightly filtered to remove any skins from the cooked must and is placed into new white oak barrels for aging. Bon appétit!
