Three years of waiting have rounded its edges. Laurent Agnès makes this artisanal Red Wine Vinegar from 100% Merlot grapes from Bordeaux, then ages it for three years, until its flavor settles into a beautifully balanced depth: rich, rounded notes and a smooth tartness underpinned by an acidity of 7%. A refined and versatile condiment, it belongs in a classic vinaigrette for lentils or leeks, or in a shallot sauce for red meats.

Chicken with Red Wine Vinegar
- Season 8 bone-in chicken pieces and brown them in 2 tbsp butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat, about 10 minutes.
- Add 4 chopped shallots and 2 crushed garlic cloves, cook for 2 minutes, then pour in 1/2 cup (120 ml) of the red wine vinegar and let it bubble for 2 minutes.
- Add 1 tbsp tomato paste and 1/2 cup (120 ml) chicken stock, cover and simmer for 30 minutes, until the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) inside.
- Remove the chicken, stir 1/4 cup (60 ml) heavy cream into the sauce and simmer until slightly thickened, then spoon it over the chicken.
The Maker
Vinegar cannot be hurried. It asks for time, and in return it gives depth. Since 1998, in Saint-Martin-de-Juillers, Laurent Agnès has devoted himself to the traditional craft of vinegar-making. He makes fine artisanal vinegars with patience, precision, and respect for nature, far from any shortcut. Each bottle reflects the slow work of an artisan who lets the vinegar take the time it needs. His expertise and distinctive vinegars have earned the trust of renowned chefs and of Michelin-starred restaurants across France, where Laurent Agnès vinegars have found their place in the kitchen.
