Wonderful experience learning the process - This mini tour was such an eye opener for how balsamic is produced. It gives a new meaning and appreciation for how expensive good balsamic is! I basically had a private tour and Elena was very knowledgeable and friendly. I highly recommend this so you too can appreciate how quality balsamic is made.

Must do! My entire family including 2 teen boys loved this!! - THIS PLACE IS AMAZING! I say this being a family that stayed there for 8 days, with the smell of balsamic coming from above us in the attic, but really this is a GREAT tour. Alessia was our guide and she is so informative and knows so much and is funny and helpful. The entire family is the greatest. I really can't give this place enough stars. The experience is amazing and I will never eat balsamic the same again. We bought a ton of bottles to bring home. what a great gift for friends who couldn't experience what we did first hand. Even the cheapest bottle, about $10 which Barbara says "oh that is for salad" meaning its not the super stuff, is 10000x better than any balsamic you buy at the store. I wish I had bought even more than I did. I have used it every day since I have been home.

Nice experience - The host was super knowledgeable and nice! They helped me with transportation booking as well. I’ve learned the whole history and the way of production of Balsamic vinegar. We also got the chance to taste all different kinds of Balsamic vinegar. The Acetaia is in a quiet and peaceful place. Definitely recommend!

Great Tour! - Laura was a fabulous guide through everything balsamic. We met the owner, Barbara as she was giving a cooking class. This location is also a bed and breakfast which I wish we would have known ahead of time because we definitely would have stayed! This tour is highly recommended!

Modeno - The guide was great, very friendly and informative. The tour was very small, which let us ask a lot of questions. The balsamic vinegar was excellent and well worth the trip to Modeno.

A Balsamic Experience - I wish I can bring more people to this experience. I came to this Acetaia knowing little of balsamic and leaving with an immense appreciation for the tradition and stories that make up Castelfranco Emilia and Modena. You gain a respect for the love that goes into producing balsamic. I was lucky to have been the only one booked that day and got a one on one experience with the owner Barbara who was very hospitable. She immediately welcomed me into her home and as soon as she was ready, brought me up to her Acetaia where I was met by the enthralling smell of the vinegar and the rows of barrels. She explained the history and stories that came with barrels. I honestly cannot look at balsamic vinegar the same way again. Barbara took the time and made sure I wasn’t left with any questions. After spending time in the Acetaia, we went to the shop where I got to taste the different vinegars and truly understood why it was worth learning what goes behind making true balsamic. I ended up buying a bottle which was reasonably priced. Not everyday you can buy something from someone with a product made by their own hands. A bit of information: the property is about a 10 min. drive from the Castelfranco Emilia station. Sofia was able to arrange transportation for me. I ended up paying about 30 euros going to and from which was reasonable, but it’s surely accessible if you have your own vehicle. I also thought being late was a problem since the trains the day of were having delays. I still made it in time, but Sofia is accessible through email so I had no problems.

Very interesting tasting... - Very interesting tasting and tour. Highly recommend. We learned a lot about this old tradition and how to tell which product is the right one and not industrial. 🙂
