Refresh availabilityCalifornia blood oranges are infused in our barrel-aged dark balsamic from Modena, Italy for a bright citrus flavor. Excellent paired with chipotle, basil, or lime-infused EVOO. A wonderful choice for vinaigrette, marinades, fruit compote. Add a twist to spinach salads, pork tenderloin or chicken, and sweets (think brownies and ice cream!).
Step into a world of vibrant citrus and rich tradition with Olive This Olive That's Blood Orange Dark Balsamic Vinegar. This isn't your average condiment; it's a bottled symphony of sweet and tart, a luxurious embrace of Italian heritage infused with the sunshine essence of blood oranges.
Our journey begins in the heart of Modena, Italy, where generations-old balsamic vinegar production methods are meticulously followed. We use Trebbiano grapes, bathed in Italian sunshine and boasting a concentrated sweetness. These grapes are slowly cooked down into a thick "must," the foundation for a truly remarkable transformation. The must then embarks on a years-long odyssey, aged in a series of progressively smaller wooden barrels. Each barrel – meticulously chosen from oak, cherry, chestnut, and more – whispers its unique story, imparting a depth of flavor and a hint of subtle sweetness.
But here's where the magic truly unfolds. We introduce the star of the show: the blood orange. These vibrant fruits, bursting with a complex flavor profile of sweet citrus and a hint of tang, are carefully infused into the aged balsamic. The blood oranges slowly release their essence, adding a delightful burst of freshness and a touch of ruby-red color that's as captivating as a Sicilian sunset.
The first wave of Blood Orange Dark Balsamic Vinegar is a delightful surprise. The rich, dark balsamic notes intertwine with the bright acidity of the blood orange, creating a flavor that's both familiar and exhilarating. The sweetness of the aged balsamic plays a supporting role, balancing the tang and highlighting the citrusy essence. As the flavor unfolds, a hint of spice and wood from the aged barrels peeks through, creating a beautifully layered experience that lingers long after the last drop.
This isn't just a balsamic for drizzling over cheese (although it elevates that experience too!). Blood Orange Dark Balsamic Vinegar is a versatile ingredient that can transform your everyday dishes into culinary masterpieces. Here are a few ways to unleash its potential:
