Acacia wood has the final say. La Compagnie de Bouteville’s Le Végétal Vinegar, from the Bouteville triple-maturation range, is made exclusively from white Ugni Blanc grapes and matured through three successive barrel stages, the last in acacia, which develops its distinctive herbal and floral character. Light and aromatic, it strikes a refined balance between acidity and finesse. Add a few drops to oysters or a sea bream carpaccio, or to a delicate vinaigrette for young leaves and asparagus.
