The practice of cooking grape can be traced back to <a href="/wiki/Ancient_Rome" title="Ancient Rome">ancient Roman</a> times, where it was valued both as a medicinal remedy and a sweetener or condiment in cooking. The story of balsamic vinegar began in the 11th century in the city of Modena; by 1046, it was already gaining a wider reputation. The future Holy Roman Emperor, King Henry III, requested Marquis Bonifacio of Canossa to craft a high quality vinegar in his castle. By the late 1200s, vinegar production flourished at the Este Court in Modena, with the term <i>balsamic</i> first recorded in 1747 in the ledgers of the Este family cellars.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources. (January 2025)">citation needed</span></a></i>]</sup> </p><p>In the second half of the 19th century, the provinces of Emilia joined the newly formed Kingdom of Italy, and balsamic vinegar of Modena was promoted at national and international exhibitions. While aristocratic families cultivated a refined balsamic tradition, local peasant families began to blend it with wine vinegar, creating a lighter version for everyday use.<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources. (January 2025)">citation needed</span></a></i>]</sup> </p><p>This practice eventually led to the creation of Balsamic Vinegar of Modena PGI and widespread distribution of across the world. Historically, in the area of <a href="/wiki/Modena" title="Modena">Modena</a> and <a href="/wiki/Province_of_Reggio_Emilia" title="Province of Reggio Emilia">Reggio</a>, the vinegars produced in the houses were made more pleasant by flavouring them with herbs, liquorice, rosemary, roses, vanilla, or by producing them with different raw materials (trebbiano, moscato...) or procedures, creating over the centuries a widespread fame for "<a href="/wiki/Balsamic_vinegar_of_Modena" title="Balsamic vinegar of Modena">Modena-style vinegars</a>".<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>In 1747, in the registers of the cellars of the Ducal Palace of Modena, located in <a href="/wiki/Rubiera" title="Rubiera">Rubiera</a>, the adjective "balsamic" appeared for the first time, to distinguish a particular type from the many others present in the palace.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In 1830 this definition was further refined, so that the vinegars present at the Court were divided into "balsamic", "semi-balsamic", "fine", and "common".<sup class="noprint Inline-Template Template-Fact" style="white-space:nowrap;">[<i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed" title="Wikipedia:Citation needed"><span title="This claim needs references to reliable sources.

After <a href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">World War II</a>, the economic boom led some producers, such as Telesforo Fini and the Monari-Federzoni family, to market a different product under the name "balsamic vinegar", which was a mix with wine vinegar for daily use.
