Our grapefruit white balsamic sparkles with crisp, clean citrus flavor. It has a perfect balance of acidity and natural sweetness. Try this amazing balsamic in dressings paired with fennel, or get fancy and make a white balsamic grapefruit granita or sorbet. It’s even delicious in cocktails or shrubs.
This balsamic pairs well with any of our Fresh Press extra virgin olive oils. Shop for it in our markets or online.

Grapefruit & Greens Salad with Avocado, Pistachios and a Grapefruit Vinaigrette
This is a cheerful salad for winter. The a tangy pink grapefruit awakens the palate while the dried cranberries and pistachios add more layers of flavor, interest and delight to the dish. Leave off the cheese if you wish. Adapted from The Olive Oil and Vinegar Lover’s Handbook. Serves 4.
What’s a shrub? It’s a vinegar-based drink made by soaking fruit in drinking vinegar for a couple days, straining and mixing it with something fizzy, such as club soda or sparking water, and maybe a little simple syrup. However, using Sigona’s infused balsamics makes the process less of a waiting game! Our balsamics are already full of flavor so the process takes minutes instead of days. Stirring in liquor is up to the individual (we recommend vodka or gin). This makes enough shrub base to serve 2.
If you know, you know! Our longtime customers know when we say these two fruits are available, they need to hurry in to the market! The season for heirloom Santa Rosa plums and heirloom Blenheim apricots will be done before you know it. You can't find these treasures just anywhere, and Sigona's is honored to work with the local growers to bring in these favorites.
Find us in two San Francisco Bay Area locations: in Redwood City across from Costco and Palo Alto in the Stanford Shopping Center.
