It's possible the only combination of "tart" and "sweet" you're aware of is the kind you scarf down out of a cardboard box at the movies. But there's more to this twosome than mouth-puckering candies. The tartly sweet balsamic mixes with the sweetly sweet honey, with a touch of demi for base, and you've got a sauce that has all the action and adventure of a summer blockbuster, but much less work and not involving someone wearing a cape.
