Modena: Cavedoni Balsamic Vinegar Tour & Tasting
Modena: Cavedoni Balsamic Vinegar Tour & Tasting★★★★★★★★★★ 4.97 (272)2hYou walk through vineyards and a working acetaia dating to 1860, then taste eight balsamic vinegars ranging from five to over one hundred years old, paired with local cheeses, cured meats, and Lambrusco wine made on-site. The owner leads the tour in English or Italian and stays with you through the tasting. You'll need to arrange a taxi from Modena (45 minutes) or Bologna (70 minutes), or book one from the nearby Vignola train station in advance.Is it for me?Book this if you want to understand balsamic vinegar beyond the bottle — the owner walks you through seven generations of family history and the actual process, which turns a tasting into something closer to a masterclass. The remote location (45 minutes from Modena by taxi) is what keeps it small and unhurried.Free cancellationTravelers' pickKids −40%from€ 75View ›
