La Vecchia Dispensa Pear Reduction 100ml

La Vecchia Dispensa Pear Reduction

(Artisanal Emilian Glaze of Aged Balsamic & Pear Concentrate)

About the Maker: Produced by the Pelloni family at La Vecchia Dispensa in the historic town of Castelvetro di Modena. Combining classic acetaia traditions with culinary innovation, the Pellonis blend their renowned aged grape musts with ripe regional fruits to create deeply concentrated, cheese-focused reductions.

Cure & Blend Notes: Hand-selected ripe Italian pears are slow-simmered and blended with concentrated grape must and a dash of barrel-aged Balsamic Vinegar of Modena. Reduced over low heat in small batches to naturally draw out the fruit’s sugars and essences without added preservatives, starch, or artificial colors.

Aroma & Palate: Warm, honeyed, and richly fruity. Aromas of baked Williams pear, spiced orchard fruit, and subtle oak lead into a velvety palate that pairs deep pear sweetness with a soft, balancing balsamic tang.

Texture: Thick, luscious, and spoonable with a glossy, nectar-like consistency that clings beautifully to hard and washed-rind cheeses.

Wine Pairing: Off-Dry Chenin Blanc, Gewürztraminer, or Chablis — vibrant, aromatic whites with stone-fruit notes complement the warm pear sweetness while cutting through rich fats.

Deli Companion: Engineered as the ultimate cheese pairing — divine alongside washed-rind Langres Germain, Pérail Papillon, aged Parmigiano Reggiano, Mimolette, or drizzled over A Lady Butcher Wagyu Bresaola and duck liver mousse.
