Giuseppe Giusti. The only dating on the site states that the stuff is 12-year, but it's syrupy sweet and very drinkable. I was amazed. It's all you need on a salad--it's more complex than any dressing. It worked wonderfully well with everything in last night's salad, from pink grapefruit sections and Kalamata olives to the sliced turkey. I sopped up the last few drops with bread.
My stuff came in a small glass cruet with a wax seal. It looks like the "Reserve Francisco Maria," but the bottle is a special package for Williams-Sonoma so I'm not sure which grade went into it. I can't find the bottle online. Maybe it's not the premier grade, but it's so much better than any variety I've ever had. I finally know what the fuss is about.
It's a revelation, isn't it? My sister hooked me with a bottle from O&Co. My favorite use is over heirloom tomatoes and fresh mozz, but I hear tell some folks put it on ice cream.
