Balsamic Vinegar Masterclass with Acetaia Sereni: Taste, Learn & Discover

Join Francesco from Acetaia Sereni, one of Modena’s most respected producers, for an intimate masterclass celebrating the art of traditional balsamic vinegar. Taste a range of exquisite aged vinegars, learn about the centuries-old production techniques, and discover how to appreciate, pair, and use these liquid treasures in cooking and tasting.

Guided by Sommelier Alice Massaria, in connection with the Sereni family, this experience is perfect for food lovers, chefs and anyone curious about Italy’s culinary heritage.

Balsamic vinegar is not just a condiment—it’s a story of patience, craft, and Italian tradition. In this exclusive masterclass with Acetaia Sereni, you’ll explore the journey from grape to barrel, and from barrel to your tasting glass.

During the session, you’ll:

• Taste a selection of aged balsamic vinegars, from young and vibrant to rich and complex “extra vecchio” styles
• Learn the traditional production methods passed down through generations
• Discover pairing tips for food, cheese, desserts, and even drinks
• Understand how to taste and evaluate quality balsamic vinegar, just like the experts
