Gourmet Living Introduces Goccia Nera Balsamic Vinegar of Modena, Italy

  GREENWICH, CT - 10/05/2016 (PRESS RELEASE JET)

Gourmet Living, a family-owned business located in Greenwich, CT, has just introduced "Goccia Nera," a competitively priced barrel-aged balsamic vinegar from Modena, Italy.  Goccia Nera is now available for sale on Amazon and Gourmet Living's eCommerce store. 

This balsamic vinegar is certified IGP by the Italian authorities to attest to its authenticity. This is the fourth barrel-aged premium brand of balsamic vinegar introduced by Gourmet Living to consumers in the U.S. since last year. Goccia Nera provides buyers with a lower price point yet remains faithful to Italian production traditions. 

"We believe that Goccia Nera provides consumers with a great balsamic vinegar at a competitive price yet remains true to the Italian Denominazione di origine protetta  regulations," says Sheila May from Gourmet Living. "These regulations are in place to protect the integrity and authenticity of the product - and we wanted to make sure our brands meet these rigorous standards so that people experience a product with no additives or preservatives." 

The health benefits of balsamic vinegar continue to be a source of some debate. Nevertheless, balsamic vinegar is very low in calories, as well as having a beneficial glycemic load for people with diabetes. While further research is needed, some recent studies suggest that the antioxidants in balsamic vinegar can help reduce heart disease, fight cancer and improve digestion. 

Goccia Nera contains a higher percentage of wine vinegar to wine must and hasn't been aged as long as Gourmet Living's premium brand, Goccia d'Oro.  Nevertheless, it consists of only these two ingredients and contains no artificial colors, additives or preservatives often found in commercial and low-priced brands. Goccia Nera is best used in salads, vinaigrettes, glazes and marinades. 

Goccia Nera provides diners with a true and authentic taste of Italy. A few drops are all that is needed to create a dish that tastes as if it were made in an Italian kitchen. This vinegar has been made from the Lambrusco grapes in Modena, Italy, which have been barrel-aged to concentrate flavor.   When bottled, wine vinegar is added to the wine must to produce balsamic vinegar. 

Goccia Nera balsamic vinegar of Modena is sold on Amazon.com and members of Amazon Prime receive free shipping.   Visit the Company's website for more information about balsamic vinegar.
