Balsamic and so much more - Travelled to Bologna for a quick trip and spent our first day in the countryside near Modena. A great way to spend an afternoon learning about the family history and the process of making balsamic. Tasting the products - balsamic, vinegars, and wines all made by the family - was delicious, and gaining understanding of the process of creating balsamic was delightful. Sitting down to a board of local foods was a lovely end to a fantastic afternoon. Would highly recommend this tour.

Tasting Art - I was the only one on my particular tour. It was such a special experience and I will surely return with my family to share this magical experience with them. I learned so much about the history, production, and craft of making Accetto di Balsamico and had the most wonderful and insightful tasting experience. I've never experienced anything like it. Cannot recommend this tour highly enough.

Incredible experience! - We had some trouble getting there with the buses. Marcello was kind enough to pick us up from Castelvetro! The tour with Eliza was lovely! Very informative, warm and welcoming people and the tasting exceeded our expectations. Grazie mille Marcello & Eliza! Bravo!

Balsamic like you never experienced! - We had a fabulous visit -- so informative and we'll never buy balsamic at home without using the lessons learned! We loved the balsamic tasting and pairing with food. We felt like we had been invited into the family's home -- Good food, wine and fellowship! Highly recommend --- many thanks!!

182 years of aceta balsamico di Modena - Our tour was everything we wanted! Learning about making balsamic vinegar--the heart, time, and dedication it takes--was so fun! Not to mention all of the snacks, wine, and balsamic vinegar we were able to enjoy as well. Grazie mille Marcello for sharing Acetaia Cavedoni with us--what an incredible experience.
