Description
- The collection “Gli Eredi” is dedicated to particular representative ancestors of the Giusti family; Francesco Maria Giusti, who appears in the Duke of Estense first Register of local businesses commissioned in 1605, Pietro Giusti, who along with Giuseppe Giusti led his vinegars to Florence in 1861 to the Italian Fair, convened by Crown Prince of Savoy of the newly established Kingdom of Italy.
- Ingredients: Must of cooked grapes, must of cooked sundried grapes, aged wine vinegar. Ageing: In French oak barrels with the addition of aged balsamic vinegar extracted from centuries old casks.
- The Giusti family has directly guided the company since 1605, with passion and a long term strategy, arriving today at the 17th generation. Claudio and Francesca, together with Luciano, continue the project started by their ancestors, uniting a respect for tradition with a flexible, modern and sustainable company management, centered on well being and valorization of the people, the territory and the community with which it engages.
- Ageing in casks is definitely the most crucial part of the creation of balsamic vinegar. The older the cask, the better the balsamic vinegar will be, as casks release an increasing intensity of wood essences and complexity of aromas from the vinegars left to age throughout the years. That’s why the heart of the production is an “acetaia” of 600 casks from where the most pure extractions, responsible for the unmistakable aroma of all Giusti Balsamic Vinegars, are collected.
- Giuseppe Giusti balsamic vinegars have collected many recognitions since the company’s foundation through today. The most meaningful awards were obtained during the Belle-Epoque, when the Giusti family presented their balsamic vinegars at international food fairs. The 14 Gold Medals that characterize the famous Giusti label, designed in the early 1900s, date back to this era. In addition to these medals, there is also the Royal Seal of Approval, granted from the King of Italy in 1929.
