Common Balsamic Vinegar Production Processes

The type of balsamic vinegar that is more commonly produced is a combination of concentrated or cooked grape must and wine vinegar which is fermented and aged for 2 - 3 years. The final quality is affected more by the quality and quantity of the ingredients than by the aging process. Most companies use a Leaf or Star system to differentiate between their grades of balsamic with the higher numbers indicating the higher quantity of the concentrated must vs. the wine vinegar.
