A Modena native, Monica is passionate about showcasing the vinegar produced in the region because her family was very involved in producing vinegar. She has been working for over 18 years at Malpighi, a family owned business that continues the tradition of the family’s ancestors. Vinegar was discovered 2000 years ago in Modena and the Malpighi family is one of the oldest families producing vinegar in Italy. They have been producing balsamic vinegar in Modena for over five generations since 1850 and own 20 hectares of grapes used solely for the production of vinegar. The culture of Modena is deeply rooted in the tradition of balsamic production and Monica is proud to share the family’s heritage with travelers.
