Crafted in Monticello, New Mexico

Traditional Balsamic
of Monticello

Forget everything you know about balsamic.

One drop and you’ll understand. Ours pours slow and dark, perfectly balanced between sweet and tart, with a depth only 24 years in seven rare-wood barrels can build. Drizzle it on cheese, meats, ripe fruit, even ice cream, and taste real balsamic for the first time. Simple food, made extraordinary.

Grapes. Wood. Time.

Good things
take their time.

In Emilia-Romagna, Italy, traditional balsamic has roots reaching back nearly a thousand years. Grapes, wooden casks and patience, passed from one generation to the next. We make ours the same way, in a New Mexico historic adobe village, with estate-grown grapes and seven casks each made from a different rare wood. Finish your dish with a few drops and taste history.
