Elsa Fondo Dotale Balsamic Vinegar Made in small batches from ancient Lambrusco grape must, it’s aged in a series of wooden casks – cherry, chestnut, acacia, oak, and juniper – each giving depth to the rich, velvety, sweet-sour flavor of the vinegar. Aged 6 years. $21.99
Fondo Carrate Balsamic Vinegar This balsamic is obtained through the traditional method of slowly fermenting cooked grape must from the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy. A well balanced condiment with a taste of sweet and sour. Aromatic with a rich velvety brown color. Aged 12 years. $39.99
Villa Manodori Balsamic Vinegar Massimo Bottura, chef at Osteria Francescana in Modena, Italy, makes this artisanal vinegar in limited quantities, aging it in a series of oak, chestnut and juniper barrels so that the grape and wood flavors intermingle for classic balsamico richness. Handcrafted from Trebbiano grapes using traditional artisanal methods. Carefully staged aging creates the dark color, rich aroma and thickness characteristic of a true balsamico. Wonderful glazed over steak, pork or poultry, added to a pasta sauce, drizzled over risotto or tossed with oil and salad greens. $59.99
Cheese Board
Jasper Hills “Harbison” The “it” cheese of the season – just Google it! Full of flavor. Similar to Vacherin Mont D’or. With a little age it finishes with meaty, smoky, juniper notes. Spruce wrapped to maintain its creamy goodness. Just remove the top and dig in!
Aged Pecorino Toscano D.O.P. A favorite from Tuscany, this simple and rustic sheep’s milk cheese captures the palate with its nutty, olive-like flavors. Aged for approximately 6 months and rubbed with olive oil. $18.00/lb
Mull of Kintyre Cheddar Rugged, bold, and full of character. This cheddar is slowly aged until perfect, then hand selected by master cheese graders to ensure its firm body and deep, rounded flavor. Nutty and sweet hints resulting in a distinctive experience that slowly stimulates the different taste sensations. $6.99/ea
Wine of the Week
La Closerie du Pic ’16
“The 2016 Pic Saint Loup La Closerie du Pic, a blend of Syrah and Grenache, features striking aromas of crushed stone to go along with the familiar cola and plum notes so typical of this estate’s style. It’s full-bodied and softly tannic but concentrated, with more freshness, energy and length than the entry-level wines. It should drink well for up to a decade.”
