HANDCRAFTED WINE BARRELS
TOASTED, NOT CHARRED.
Our wine barrels are built from air dried export grade American White Oak. We use traditional French Coopering methods to build wine barrels before they are hand toasted.
Our toasting technology provides extremely accurate temperature controls delivering consistent toast levels from wine barrel to wine barrel, order to order.
We offer four toast options: light, medium, medium plus and heavy, but can customize the toast and finish for any recipe.
WINE BARREL SPECS
STATE OF THE ART
Using lean and efficient manufacturing systems, our wine barrels are built with the highest levels of precision. State of the art CNC jointing and machine fit head profiling produce extremely accurate stave and croze joints for liquid tight barrels.
Every barrel is sanded for a high-quality finish. Heavy gauge hoop steel is edge conditioned for better handling on wine barrel galvanized hoops.
