Ultimate Red Wine Vinegar - 8.5oz Glass Bottle is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
Made with California Shiraz and aged in 25-gallon American oak, Ultimate Red Wine Vinegar is your go-to when you want vinaigrettes and sauces with real backbone. Slow-fermented using an early-1800s method, it’s rich and meaty with a sharp, clean finish—the kind of balance that makes simple salads and roasted veg taste restaurant-ready.
This bottle has the credentials and the crowd love to match: Double Gold & Best in Class for red wine vinegar, plus raves from home cooks who’ve taste-tested it against top brands. The verdict: smoother, deeper, and more versatile.
Rich, savory depth with a bright, mouth-watering snap. Think “structured wine” energy but in vinegar form—rounded by oak, never harsh, and easy to use daily.
Everyday vinaigrette hero: 1 part Ultimate Red Wine Vinegar to 2–3 parts extra-virgin olive oil with salt and a pinch of mustard.
Protein whisperer: Splashes into meat marinades to tenderize and season without masking flavor.
Classic cookery: Build sauerbraten, sharpen Greek salads, and finish gin-based cocktails with a subtle lift.
