Here is what's in store for you

Step into The Only Modena City Center Balsamic Vinegar Barrel Room and experience the authentic soul of Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale di Modena DOP. This family-run estate, founded in the mid-1800s, has preserved the ancient craft of balsamic vinegar production, combining history, patience, and passion in every precious drop.
Your guided tour begins in the historic vinegar cellar, where rows of wooden barrels hold vinegars aged for years—sometimes decades. Learn about the traditional production methods, from grape must reduction to the slow, natural aging that develops the vinegar’s complex aromas and flavors.
The experience continues with a tasting session, where you’ll sample several varieties of balsamic vinegar, each revealing its unique character — from the sweet, velvety notes of the long-aged versions to the bright, tangy freshness of younger ones.
Located just steps from Modena’s UNESCO World Heritage landmarks, this estate offers a serene escape into tradition and craftsmanship. This immersive experience is perfect for lovers of Italian gastronomy, offering a rare chance to discover the true essence of Modena’s most iconic product right in the city center.

Where we are and how to reach us

You will find the vinegar factory in Modena City Center: it is 7 minutes by walking from the Duomo. In the narrow street of Via Rua del Muro, wait at the number 86 (see on the walls) outside the arched entrance. At the entrance, there are 3 meter high wooden panel doors and you will see the windows with the vinegar barrel illustration. The guide will arrive just at the start time, wait for him outside or inside if it is already open.
