We have been in touch over the years and he has generously sent me some samples along the way, and this bottling represents our first joint effort!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe first batches of this vinegar have been aging in neutral oak barrels for nearly a year using the very “Slow” Orleans Method. The vinegar highlights classic Pinot Noir with notes of tart berries, plum and even pomegranate with hints of sweet spice. It is nicely balanced with a backbone of crisp acidity.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe clean and balanced flavor of this vinegar will enhance many dishes as well as providing a pleasant but solid core of acidity \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eto any dish or recipe\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSlow Food Ark of Taste Statement:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ci data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThough scientific advances have made large-scale production of vinegars fast and easy, it is the handcrafted Orleans Method that allows for the most full-bodied and nutrient-rich wine vinegars. Unlike most modern vinegar making, which is based on rapid, forced fermentation, the Orleans Method requires the vinegar to age for months in small oak barrels. As a consequence of this extensive process, very little commercial production of the vinegar exists in the US.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Katz Farm","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39740904341562,"sku":"KF-PNO-BR","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0549\/3381\/5354\/products\/PinotBottle.png?v=1678818599","url":"https:\/\/www.katzfarm.mom\/products\/katz-pinot-noir-vinegar","provider":"KATZ Farm","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
