Tarragon Wine Vinegar

Tarragon Wine Vinegar from American Vinegar Works begins with California chardonnay and fresh tarragon co-fermented so flavor runs through the whole bottle, not just an infusion at the surface. After a year of slow fermentation and barrel aging, it lands bright and composed with the unmistakable anise-licorice whisper tarragon lovers crave. A limited release.
