As far back as 900 years ago, vintners in Modena ... were making balsamic vinegar ... Although it is considered a wine vinegar, it is not a wine vinegar at all. It is not made from wine, but from grape pressings that have never been permitted to ferment into wine.

CONT

Contrairement au vinaigre de vin, de cidre ou d'alcool, le balsamique n'est pas fabriqué à partir d'un produit alcoolisé. On se sert plutôt du jus des raisins cueillis le plus tard possible à l'automne pendant qu'ils sont gorgés de sucre.
