Durant sells vinegar alongside the oil, and it splits into two categories.
The Aperö Classic Balsamic is aged eight years in Modena and bottled at the mill in Dayton. It’s an Italian product they finish and sell, not one they make. Sweet and tart with a caramelized finish. Good with their oils for dressings, or over aged cheddar.
The fruit vinegars are theirs. Balsamic Fig, White Peach, and Blackberry Roasted Pepper. They sell as a set with tasting notes, and the blackberry roasted pepper is the one worth trying because you won’t find it elsewhere.
There’s also a Pinot Noir BBQ sauce made from grapes that came in too smoky from wildfire to make wine. Rather than waste them, they cooked them down.
You can taste the vinegars alongside the oils at the mill. The tasting has been complimentary, with bread.
For the tasting, yes. The farm shop is walk-in.
