Flavor description
Since it’s discovery several centuries ago, vinegar has been used as a preservative, a medicine, and even a beverage. The earliest method for making it involved leaving wine in an open container and waiting for it to sour. Wine vinegar comes in red and white varieties.
Because it’s made with red wine, the red variety has a strong, full flavor.
