Dairy, Acetaia and Aperitif tour

Thanks to the agreement we have entered into with the centuries-old Castellazzo dairy in Campagnola Emilia, it is possible to purchase the tour at their facility 5 km from Acetaia San Giacomo.

The required arrival time is 9 am, maximum 9.15 am to be able to see the first stages of processing together with Davide, who will also guide you to the Acetaia.
It will then be possible to purchase their Parmigiano Reggiano, ricotta, caciotte and other products from the Castellazzo dairy.

Afterwards we will move on to the Acetaia, which can be visited in its entirety: from the external courtyard we move on to the ancient internal stall with the barriques undergoing acetification; then we move on to the suggestive Acetaia, where the Traditional Balsamic Vinegar rests (in some cases for more than 50 years) , located in the old barn of the Corte Faragosa.

Once finished, we will move on to the visit with tasting of all the "cooked " products (Saba, BalsaMela, Agro di Mosto, Balsamic San Giacomo, Essenza San Giacomo) plus all three  Traditional Balsamic Vinegars from Reggio Emilia (Lobster label, minimum 12 years of ageing, Silver label 20 years, Gold label 25 years) and tasting of Raw (wine) Vinegars.

At the end of the journey we offer an aperitif/snack which includes the selection of Parmigiano-Reggiano Acetaia San Giacomo with artisan bread and Gnocco (typical focaccia), TreSpe refermented white or L' ambrusco Ugolino Bio (our production) or Opera Birra Gastronomica , Erbazzone Reggiano ( typical savory pie), salami and pork cracklings.
The request for variations such as vegetarian or non-alcoholic alternatives (however available) must be communicated in time, as well as the presence of allergies or intolerances.

At the end of the visit, you will have a free copy of the book Gastronationalismo (worth €18), a critical analysis of the indications of origin, and the report of the twenty-fifth harvest of Acetaia San Giacomo (value €10).
