So you’re saying I should get one for me and one for mom for Xmas, right? ![]()
PS. You wanna go in on splitting a case of TyC wines at the sale? It’s getting very hard to resist.

Hi All
This is Howard Case and I am the president of Casa de Case, the importer of Cavedoni Balsamic Vinegars. We are a small, very specialized Italian food importer in San Francisco. We focus on wholesale sales to the best restaurants in the Bay Area, but we also supply products to specialty stores, and as some of you know, this is the second time we have hooked-up with Wine.woot to offer Botte Piccola, this time just in time for your Holiday giving. We are extremely proud to represent Cavedoni, and I will check in here from time-to-time to answer any of your questions.
My opening comment, is that the offering here is an extraordinary value as some of you have already discovered surfing around.
What is this TyC sale you speak of? I assume that means Ty Canton.
Welcome back! Glad to see you here again - love this stuff ![]()
go pub.
Yeah, what she said. ![]()
Just what I needed for my mother in law! Thanks WD - one for me (of course!) and one for her. While my bank is not loving this week on w.w. - I surely am…2/4
OMG. Thanks much. This is great.
Maybe I need to visit the pub more. Not enough time in the day.

Based on the comments the last time this was offered, it really is worth the price.

I was lucky enough to get labratted last time it was up. It was excellent and worth the money as it was as good or better than some I’ve had that was twice the price. It was summer when it arrived, so we had it on strawberries and vanilla ice cream (I know, sounds weird, try it!) and also on bruschetta.
It is thicker and sweeter than regular balsamic so it has a sweet and sour flavor that you don’t get in un-aged balsamic.
If you give this for the holidays, your recipients will thank you!
I am so very tempted. The real Balsamic is light years from the norm.
Very tempted to spend da bread and go in for 3–one for Mom, one for Dad and stepmom, and one for moi because even though I still have a lot left I want more!
BTW this is sublime on fresh stone fruit or ripe pears, cut up, as well as drizzled on aforementioned hard cheese.
Give me a 30 year old & I will buy it. I can get better 12-15 year old BV for cheaper at my grocer.
Can this be purchased for someone under the age of 21? It’s not really wine.
Sucked in for 2, 1 for me and 1 for my sis. Though I really wish we could get the zinfandel vinegar that we had at Seghesio on the rpm tour. Best vinegar I have ever had. But they don’t even sell it commercially, just use it for catering.
First sucker: filteauf
Speed to first woot: 0m 10.593s
Last wooter to woot: tkastorff
Missed this one last time, in for 3 this time, at least one as a gift, maybe two. Glad to see this available again! Thanks WD
and when are the EHP shipping out? man I want to try one…
I can’t wait to try this. As I’m a noob in the world of aged balsamic, any other recommendations on good pairings? I’ve already seen caprese, bruschetta, reggiano (sounds amazing!), strawberries and vanilla ice cream. Anything else jump to mind? How is it in cooking?
Anyway, I’m in for one.

I’m in the same boat. I’ve never had it but could’nt say no after seeing how much everyone loves it. I can’t wait to see what the favorites are…
Let me ask a quick question that I know I’ll have once this arrives at my house. Once opened, how do you store the pour spout? Do you rinse it off and put it back in the box, replacing the original cap on the bottle? Leave it in the bottle permanently and just cover with plastic wrap or something for storage? I’m assuming it doesn’t come with instructions, and it would just be my luck that I would ruin this fine specimen of vinegar.
Welcome back! We have been really enjoying the balsamic from our earlier purchase.
Anyone on the fence, this sold out early last time around so don’t wait and and miss this great deal. This balsamic and farmers’ market berries helped to finally convince my wife that she didn’t hate strawberries, she just hated over-produced tasteless mass-market strawberries…

Yes. the only time the age thing comes into play is when there’s alcohol involved. No alcohol = no age limit.
