Although the craft business Il Borgo del Balsamico was started in 2004, its founders have been producing Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Reggio Emilia since 1970 as part of a family tradition.

For over thirty years, the Crotti family has been passionate about this centuries-old local practice, ageing their balsamic vinegar in a series of ancients casks purchased from noble families in the provinces of Modena and Reggio Emilia.

On founding their company, Cristina and Silvia broadened their product range, adding two new denominations: Balsamic Vinegar of Modena PGI (EU certified Protected Geographical Indication) and Condimenti (dressings).

Balsamic Vinegar of Modena and the range of Condiments are produced in a separate plant housing around 400 oak casks and three huge vats containing around 10,000 litres.

At the other end of the scale, Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Reggio Emilia PDO (EU certified Protected Designation of Origin) ages in 561 small wood casks of different sizes.
