ACETO BALSAMICO TRADIZIONALE DI REGGIO EMILIA DOP
EXCLUSIVE "MAGNUM" 250 ml - 8.45 fl.oz.
SCREEN-PRINTED WITH ORIGINAL DESIGN AND SERIAL NUMBER
Each series consists of approximately 200 pieces of blown glass bottles with a capacity of 250 ml (8.45 FL.OZ.) , screen printed with an original design and serial number.
All the screen printing show the historical episode we have chosen, that of the Marquis Bonifacio, father of Matilda of Canossa, who donates a small silver barrel containing the precious vinegar to King Henry III in the year 1046 AD.
Episode told in “Vita mathildis”, a biography of the life of Countess Matilda, written by the monk Donizone in 1046 AD, the first document that describes a very particular and sought-after vinegar in the Reggio Emilia area.
The idea is based on the possibility of stylistically modifying the event.
