Raspberry Vincotto (Saba, Grape Must) - 250ml
Raspberry Vincotto or Saba - a twist of this ancient condiment and a staple in Italian kitchens for generations. Here the saba or vincotto is mixed with fresh raspberries and matured for four years in oak barrels. The result is a delicious sweet/fruity/sour condiment. Use this raspberry vincotto as a salad dressing or a marinade for meat, particularly game. Also fantastic with cheese or try drizzling over desserts and ice cream.
This vincotto is made from Negroamaro and Malvasia grapes from the Puglia/Apulia region of Italy. In the first stage of making traditional balsamic vinegars the juice of freshly crushed white and red local grapes, is slowly boiled down to about a third of the original volume, after which it is then called "cooked must". This cooked grape must is reduced further and the result is versatile deliciously complex flavoured sweet, sticky syrup that is rich in natural anti-oxidants.
