VIGNALTA RED WINE VINEGAR (ACETO DI VINO
ROSSO) Colli Euganei, Veneto ...
8.50 (250ml)
Liner & Elsen welcomes our first estate
red wine vinegar! Vignalta's Aceto di Vino
Rosso is produced exclusively from a small
lot of Colli Euganei Rosso Vignalta, from
the Villa dei Vescovi vineyard in Luvigliano.
The wine is aged for three years in small
oak barrels, followed by acetic fermentation
with new grape clusters. Finally the vinegar
is aged for one more year in small oak barrels.
The result is a natural, undiluted vinegar
that is smooth, balanced and authentic.

Oil - Greve-in-Chianti, Tuscany ...
24.99 (500ml)
This hand-crafted, unfiltered blend
from the historic properties of Savignola
Paolina is a quintessential expression of
Tuscan estate olive oil. Silky, soft and buttery,
the taste yields to a gentle pepper at the
finish. Some have detected a hint of artichoke
in the lush, grassy flavor that is so distinctive
to the region’s olives. Picked, pressed
and bottled under the careful guidance of
patriarch Carlo Fabri, this extra virgin olive
oil is the estate’s pride. You’ll
reach for the tall, elegant bottle when dressing
salads, grilled vegetables, shellfish and
rich fish dishes.

are crushed in the traditional method, with
extraction by centrifuge. The freshly pressed

a penetrating aroma and intense, peppery taste.
As it matures it loses its initially pungent
taste and becomes lighter, softer, and more
delicate.
