Corte Leonardi is home to an old Acetaia (upper floor loft) that was built in the mid-19th century to make Leonardi Balsamic Vinegar of Modena. When he died, founder Giuseppe Leonardi left some barrels of balsamic vinegar to his son Vito. This treasured inheritance was moved to Vito’s farm in Magreta, which is still run by the Leonardi family today.
