Simply fabulous!

This was an amazing experience! Giovanna was led us through her beautiful gardens and acetaia. It was special to be at her home rather than a factory style setting. We had the opportunity to taste many ages and variations of balsamic vinegar. She taught us all about how it is made and the types of barrels and aging process. We were able to purchase and send home from her New York connection. Wonderful!
Authentic Balsamic Adventure

We were welcomed even though I had made a mistake when making our reservation. Our host and the owner greeted us with surprise upon our unexpected arrival and graciously lead us on informative tour of the family history and current operation of their vinegar production process. I felt that we could not have found a more authentic experience and truly delicious tasting! We purchased some vinegars and will be enjoying our bit of Modena soon with the recipes that came with the gift pack.
Prego!
Terrific experience in a small family producer of Traditional Balsamic

An absolutely wonderful visit at a family producer, lead by the wife of the owner. Very personable, friendly, informative. But above all the pride and love for their product and the Traditional Balsamic culture came out through out the visit. in the end we enjoyed home made snacks prepared just for us adorned with traditional balsamic. As an old gearhead I visited all the temples of racing in the area. But I rate this visit as the best experience of my time in Emilia-Romana. The drive is a bit out of the way but it gives you a chance to look at the land and the crops these people love and cherish. DO NOT MISS.
Wonderful product, wonderful jost

Very interesting tour. Family history as well as full explanation of the Balsamic process. Nice table of very tasty hors d'oeuvres using balsamic vinegar. Thoroughly enjoyed. Thank you,
You can get there by bus from Modena. Bus schedules are convenient for the tour, but be careful to be on time for the bus back to Modena
Excellent experience

We were so glad we chose to to visit this acetaia for a balsamic vinegar tour and tasting. First of all, don't be confused with simple balsamic vinegar, or even balsamic vinegar of Modena. Those two are not the best stuff on earth. "Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena" is the one and only, and is what this family has been making on this beautiful estate for generations. We were made to feel like guests in their home, and had an absolutely wonderful time.
This is the tour you want!

We were so happy we chose this tour. First of all, don't confuse balsamic vinegar or balsamic vinegar of Modena with "Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena". The first two aren't the best stuff on earth which is what's been made here for generations. There's a BIG difference! Mariangela is extremely knowledgeable, and made us feel like guests in her family's beautiful residence and acetaia. We were sad to leave!
Very good experiences

My husband and I drove to Modena to visit this manufacturer of Aceto balsamico and it was a very delightful experience. We've learn the process of producing and taste one of the best balsamic in the world. One of the owners gave us the tour and she was a smart and sweet lady.I highly recommend it!!
Modenaessig, eine spannende und köstliche Erfahrung

We perform checks on reviews
You can only submit a review or rating of an experience to Viator if you were the person who made the booking through Viator. Before publication, each review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information for each of the following criteria: who, what, how, and when. If the system detects something that contradicts our publication criteria, the review is not published. When the system detects a problem with a review, it may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site. In some cases, we will also send you an email asking you to validate your review before it is published. All you need to do is click on the link provided in the email. After publication, our team checks each review reported to it as not meeting our publication criteria. Tripadvisor reviews that appear on the Viator site are subject to the same checks and moderation processes as set out above. It is not necessary to have booked an experience through Viator (or Tripadvisor) to submit a review of an experience to the Tripadvisor site.
