GREAT VINEGAR. MOTHER MADE US DO IT. ®

Better Than Champagne Chardonnay Wine Vinegar

$13.00

Made with chardonnay from California this vinegar would be a blanc de blancs if it were a champagne. Luckily it is not, it is better.  It is slow fermented in small batches using a unique process from the early 1800s and aged in 25-gallon American oak barrels.

Our Better Than Champagne Vinegar is just that. It is not champagne vinegar, it is its' better cousin from across the pond and we couldn’t be happier with how this little upstart turned out.

Naming Note:  Why don't we call it Champagne vinegar? We told you- it's better... AND we strive to make vinegars with a sense of place and that respect that sense of place in other foods.  Champagne vinegar should come from the Champagne region of France.  Our vinegar is made from traditional champagne grapes (ie chardonnay) but it is made in our vinegar works in New England, not France.  This beautiful vinegar reflects the American wine tradition and builds on champagne-inspired vinegar flavor profiles.

Won him over!

My husband has never been keen on salads. I now make one using this vinegar and it has become a favorite.

It smells delicious and tastes just as good. It made a wonderful dressing for a fruit and lettuce salad.

WOW‼️

We just received our vinegars late yesterday. We chose the Chardonnay wine vinegar on our greens with feta cheese and EVOO. WOW‼️. It truly was awesome and definitely different from store bought. I’m planning to give everyone in the family a box for this coming Christmas ‼️‼️

What a nice find!

I've used Apple Cider Vinegar for maybe 15 years...recently I've started trying some small batch vinegars from American Vinegar works and am beginning to understand the difference between vinegars...namely their main ingredient and how it enhances flavors and flavor profiles. I quickly became a fan of the Chardonnay Vinegar in a recipe for Brussel Sprouts and Agrodulce...a very new sauce for me. OH MY...not to be believed. I continue to use this vinegar as an added zing to homemade cole slaw. I'm now a big fan.
