What to do and see in Modena, Emilia-Romagna: The Best Gift & Specialty Shops

December 6, 2021 Alice Mieles

Known for its medieval history, its auto-making prowess (as home base of both Ferrari and Maserati) and its famous balsamic vinegar, Modena is a treat for visitors of all ages. The 12th-century Romanesque Cathedral of Modena, with its spectacular Ghirlandina bell tower (under restoration until the end of 2010), is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Just outside of town (and next to the car maker’s factory) in Maranello is Galleria Ferrari, dedicated to the brand and Italian motor racing industry.

Thanks to Marcello for the perfect tour today. We learned a lot of the making of balsamico and tasted some very good balsamico. We enjoyed it very much.

We thoroughly enjoyed the experience! We will be back. The difference between 5 years and 12 years is significant and I was happy to learn the difference

La Consorteria 1966

La Consorteria 1966 is the only shop in the world dedicated entirely to Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena PDO (Protected Designation of Origin). Here you will taste a wide range of products, selected among the best producers of our territory.

Reviewed By Trhodes92 - Philadelphia, United States

Consorteria 1966 was one of the reasons my fiance and I came to Modena, and it did not disappoint. This balsamic vinegar is like nothing we have in the states in the best way. Cristina was so friendly and helpful, and she gave us a taste of 6+ vinegars. It is 5 euro per person, but that fee is waived if you buy a bottle (which we did). We were even able to bring back some gelato and try it with balsamic on top, which was wonderful. I highly recommend stopping by if you are in Modena.
