I mean it is consumed quickly. **Q: What is the expiration time given after opening & refrigerating?** A: None. It'll last forever. **Q: does this product have added wine vinegar?** A: This doesn't have any added vinegar, but you should be aware that this is not balsamic vinegar. It is cooked grape juice (called "must"), the first step in making balsamic vinegar, but it is bottled immediately after cooking, and not fermented into vinegar. As such, it is very sweet, tasting like a grape jam with the consistency of syrup. There is little or no acidity. It's quite good and very concentrated- a little goes a long way. I use it in oatmeal, for example. **Q: what is the acidity ?** A: I don't think there is any acidity. It's not vinegar. ## Frequently Bought Together - Giusti Saba – Premium Italian Saba Cooked Grape Must Made in Modena, Italy, Gourmet Sweet & Fruity Condiment for Cheese, Salads, Marinades or Meat Glazes - 8.45 fl oz (250 ml) - Pack of 1 - Giusti Italian Balsamic Vinegar of Modena IGP - 3 Gold Medals, Rich & Thick Gran Deposito Aceto Balsamico di Modena for Salads, Cheese & Finishing Touches, Made in Italy – 8.45 fl oz/250 ml -Pack of 1 - Giusti White Balsamic Vinegar Dressing – Condiment for Cooking and Finishing Dishes such as Salads, Vegetables, or Fish.
