What is Vino Cotto?

Vino Cotto by Montillo Italian Foods is an authentic, naturally sweet cooked wine with 0% alcohol and 0% vinegar. Its refined flavor hints of figs and plums, although it’s made from 100% premium wine grapes, nothing else.

Is it thick like honey or molasses? No. Vino cotto is more like a simple syrup, so it’s easy to work with and has a smooth taste and texture. If a thicker syrup is desired, simply reduce some over low heat. You’ll love its versatility! 

Montillo Italian Foods is proud to be the first American producer of vino cotto, supporting Californian grape growers and their hard workers. Making our vino cotto requires continuous climate control and significant time and labor. Its high-quality seasonal ingredient, wine grapes, and the entire process of producing it make vino cotto, unlike any other condiment or ingredient. As such, each vintage will have its own unique taste and texture.

A Healthy Choice!

Although Vino Cotto di Montillo is not certified gluten-free, nut-free, dairy-free or seed free, the only ingredients in our cooked grape must syrup are wine grapes and their naturally-occurring sulfites. We do not add sulfites. 

Vino cotto provides a healthy, natural source of energy and antioxidants to benefit your immune system. It is cholesterol free and contains no added sweeteners, artificial flavors, chemical colorants such as caramel coloring, nor any alcohol or vinegar. Yes, you can enjoy the sweetness that’s both delicious and good for you! No wonder this versatile syrup, which dates back to biblical times, continues to enhance foods of all types.

The 5-Star Ingredient!

Use vino cotto as an ingredient or condiment in both sweet or savory dishes. Or, make your own balsamic vinegar as sweet or vinegary as you want it to taste. Balsamic vinegar? Absolutely! Vino cotto is that yummy sweet flavor you taste in condiment-grade balsamic vinegar and in fortified wines such as Marsala. 

Simply add red wine vinegar to our vino cotto to easily make a healthy balsamic vinegar that’s better for you than certain I.G.P. brands of balsamic vinegar di Modena that add caramel coloring. With your homemade vinegar, prepare mouthwatering balsamic chicken, pork chops or tenderloin, glazed salmon, even asparagus, Brussels sprouts, carrots, and string beans, to name a few. And, for an amazing balsamic vinaigrette, add some olive oil to your balsamic vinegar and drizzle some over your favorite salad combinations…So good!
