ACETAIA CAVALLI, REGGIO EMILIA

OVERVIEW:

• Cavalli Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale is produced by the Giovanni Cavalli, son of Ferdinando Cavalli, the legendary founder of the Reggio Emilia Consortium.

• The Cavalli name and reputation assures the highest quality.

• The 12 and 25 year age designations are minimum age requirements and do not reflect the true age of many of Cavalli’s Tradizionali which can be up to 300 years old.

A BRIEF HISTORY: Ferdinando “Nando” Cavalli, the celebrated founder of his own Lambrusco and sparkling wine company, in the mid-twentieth century, decided to open the small family vinegar factory in 1920 to satisfy the number of friends and the best customers of his winery with a very welcome gift of vinegar. With a passionate drive Ferdinando scoured the countryside to collect as many precious barrels. Some of these barrels were filled with vinegar over five generations old.
