How to Spot a Good Wine Vinegar
A good wine vinegar adds a special dimension to all kinds of recipes and considering it has no calories, carbs, cholesterol, fat or salt it’s a must-have ingredient for modern cooking. However, if you think just how much of a bearing it can have on the final taste of a dish, it’s really worth the effort to find something decent.
The problem is, just like Balsamic vinegar, there are many wine vinegars on the market and it isn’t always easy to know which one to buy. A good starting point is to look for vinegars produced from classic wine grapes that have fermented naturally over time (months or even years). NB Industrial wine vinegars (the most commonly available) are created at very high temperatures using forced-air and the entire process is over in a single day!
IL BIANCO – Traditional Italian White Wine Vinegar
This lovely white wine vinegar is prepared following the traditional artisan truciolo method: Oak chips (trucioli) are placed in the centre of a wooden cask and the wine is added. It remains here for months as it very slowly and naturally transforms into vinegar. It is then mellowed in stainless steel tanks and acquires a perfectly balanced acidity and great depth of flavour.
Il Bianco is decisive but never aggressive, possessing great smoothness and a harmonious rounded taste.
