{"title":"Estense Farm","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhile Modena's old family acetaie rely on centuries-old tradition, the house of Alico — home to the Fattoria Estense brand — takes a different approach: it transforms the artisanal production of Aceto Balsamico into modern manufacturing, controlled at every stage, and certified according to the region's strictest standards.
