Welcome to our home, in the most authentic heart of Emilia

In the heart of the Modenese countryside, between the Food Valley and the Motor Valley, Acetaia Malagoli Daniele welcomes guests from all over the world every year through authentic experiences dedicated to Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena PDO, Emilian gastronomy, and genuine Italian hospitality.

Just a few minutes from Modena and only 6 km from Pagani Automobili, our family-run acetaia has become a point of reference for those who wish to discover Emilia-Romagna far from mass tourism:
through guided tastings, immersive food tours, private experiences, and Food Valley itineraries personally curated by our family.

Alongside hospitality, we also create handcrafted personalized gift boxes and custom gifts, developed together with local Emilian artisans to transform every present into something unique, elegant, and deeply meaningful.

But before being an acetaia, this is first and foremost a family story.

And perhaps that is exactly where the most authentic value of everything we do begins.

Traditional Balsamic Vinegar, Food Experiences, and Hospitality in the Heart of the Motor & Food Valley

The Most Popular Food Tour in Modena

Among all the experiences we offer, this is by far the most loved by our international guests — and not only by them.

An authentic Food Valley tour in Modena dedicated to three iconic symbols of Emilia-Romagna’s culinary excellence:

Parmigiano Reggiano DOP, Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena DOP and Prosciutto di Modena DOP.

In just a few hours, you will step inside the places where these traditions are truly born — a small organic full-cycle Parmigiano Reggiano dairy, our family-run Acetaia and a truly iconic Prosciutto producer — meeting the people who, every single day, preserve one of Italy’s most extraordinary gastronomic heritages.

The experience concludes with a traditional lunch at the Prosciutto producer, the final convivial moment of a journey designed for those who wish to discover Italy’s Food Valley in an authentic, elegant and deeply immersive way.

On our website, you will find this experience under the code A15: year after year, the preferred choice for travelers wishing to experience the most authentic heart of Emilia-Romagna’s food culture.

Our Parmesan and balsamic tour was truly a highlight of our trip to Modena!

From the moment we arrived, the guides welcomed us with warmth and passion, making it clear that this wasn't just a tour—it was a journey into centuries of tradition. They were also so patient with my 18 month old!


Watching the Parmesan wheels being crafted and aged was fascinating, and the aromas alone were worth the visit! The tasting that followed was exceptional—sampling cheeses at different stages of aging gave us such an appreciation for the craftsmanship involved.


The balsamic vinegar portion was equally unforgettable. Learning about the aging process in wooden barrels, passed down through generations, was both educational and inspiring. And of course, tasting the rich, syrupy balsamic—paired perfectly with Parmesan—was a revelation.


The setting was authentic and intimate, giving us the chance to ask questions and really connect with the producers. It was clear how much pride and love they put into their work, and that energy made the experience even more special.


If you love food, culture, and stories that bring both to life, this tour is a must. We left not only with delicious souvenirs but also with a deeper appreciation for two of Italy's most iconic flavors.


Highly recommend!

WOW! We didn't have a lot of expectations but this was awesome! If you visit you must do the master class, best $$$ spent on our trip!

Out host Ginnea was great, very knowledgeable and super nice, took great care of us and made the experience memorable. You will leave with a newfound love for Balsamic of Modena.

As a side note, while we were waiting, we where greated by a very nice lady that offered us coffee and cake, and chatted with us until our tour started. Later on, we found out she was the owner!

Interesting tour in a private setting.

The guide shared a great deal of information about the production of Parmigiano Reggiano and the traditional production of Traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena in a clear and engaging way, while also answering questions in detail.

In addition to the explanations and the tour itself, we had the opportunity to taste the high-quality products on site.

It was truly a fantastic experience.

The guide was wonderful, the cheeses were amazing, and sitting among the barrels was really special.

I really enjoyed hearing all the history and now I feel like I appreciate these foods much more.

My Dad and I spend a wonderful day at the acetaia, learning how to make the perfect tortellini, tortelloni, tagliatelle and many other pastas. It was a perfect preparation to cook our own Emiglia-Romania dishes for Xmas.

The entire family, including baby Celeste, welcomed us very warm!

The course takes between 3-4hours, before we got a great introduction into Aceto Balsamico in the in-house 'Acetaia'.

Eventually we enjoyed our own-made dishes including a bottle of Frizzante; or two;)

Highly recommend the class and vinegar factory!
