TMQ - Tredici Metri Quadri

Antica Acetaia La Secchia produces handmade Balsamic Vinegar of Modena made from all natural ingredients of the utmost quality and does not contain any chemical additives or artificial fragrances (caramels, colouring agents, fragrance substances, acacia gum, etc.).

The ageing process is usually done in precious French oak barrels, that are occasionally changed over in order to favor optimal oxidation and the release of aromatic substances. All of our products are filtered before being bottled by hand and are then chemically analyzed to ensure conformity to characteristics as set forth by the law.

The result is a line of high quality vinegars with very balanced organoleptic characteristics, as dictated by the ancient tradition. They are also extremely versatile in cooking and very healthy and natural.
