For over three generations our family has dedicated itself to the production of vinegar with passion and knowledge, in the tireless search for the best possible quality product.
A story which began more than 120 years ago, when Armando De Nigris opened the first vinegar mill in Naples, immediately proving to be a great success with his clients.
This success was consolidated over the years to follow, when the running of the company passed to his son Marcello, who succeeded in launching De Nigris’s products onto the international market and in widening the product range to include the prestigious Balsamic vinegar.
A spirit of innovation that, thanks to the third generation of Master Vinegar Makers, still guides us today and allows us to offer our clients products of excellence, which are appreciated world-wide for their quality and creativity.
From passionate artisans to an international organisation, our company has always looked to the future, staying true to the family motto: “Boundaries do not exist”. From the lands of the Emilia-Romagna region to overseas markets, Balsamic Vinegar of Modena has taken its place as the Italian condiment par excellence.
An historical brand with a contemporary spirit. The ability to innovate while staying true to the ancient traditions of Balsamic vinegar has always been our guiding principle and has allowed us to consolidate our heritage over a period of more than 125 years.
Authentic, natural, versatile and creative, our products are an invitation to seek out new experiences of taste, as they inspire, exalting the flavours of the ingredients, enriching recipes and igniting the taste of your dishes,
The quality of our products lies in the origin of raw materials. We put our name to every De Nigris brand product, because ours is a family business and our reputation has always been inextricably tied to the excellence of our products.
