What to do and see in Province of Modena, Emilia-Romagna: The Best Food & Drink

Production of Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena and Balsamic Condiment. The Villa of Vinegar in Modena On March 14th 1910 the project of the Villa was submitted on behalf of Lieutenant Claudio San Donnino. It was later to become an exquisite example of Emilia Romagna "liberty". Frescoes and decorations by Aroldo Bonzaghi (1887-1918) with evocative and voluptuous "dannunzian" allegories generate a magical atmosphere. In that extraordinary place, Davide and Cristina invite you to taste special products of Villa San Donnino.

At the Acetaia del Cristo since 4 generations we are working in order to pass on the cultural heritage and charm of TRADITIONAL BALSAMIC VINEGAR of MODENA, which in the past was restricted to family use and closely guarded in the attics of our forefathers. To date, we can still claim we are the most important world producer of Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena, thanks to 2000 casks exclusively used to produce Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena PDO (Protected Designation of Origin). It is us personally, along with our families, who carry out every single step in full compliance with the most ancient traditions and the PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) regulations: from cultivating our organically farmed grapes, to vintage, must cooking and the delicate drawing, decanting and topping-up operations.

Folicello is the name of our organic farm which relies entirely on the naturalness of its product, with sincere passion for the genuineness and the environment. The refusal of chemicals, both in the cultivation that in wine-making, involves a repertoire of alternative strategies that recovers the traditional methods, but also exploits the good steps of the research that provides natural products and innovative techniques. The characteristics of the organic farmer are therefore a rigorous professionalism and the loving care for its products. During these years of passions, several projects are born, some already implemented, like our Grape Juice with important nutritional values, our wines without sulfites including the first sparkling white wine Pignoletto without sulfites, and others still to be realized. We hope to have the pleasure to know you and let you taste our products... Antonella and Marco
