French Oak is much tighter grained and less dense than American Oak, thus imparting more subtle flavors and firmer, but silkier tannins. It also can impart roasted subtitles and hints of spice to the finished wine.French oak barrels are also known to provide a certain elegance and creamy quality in the wine, largely due to the silky tannins. Grape varietals such as Chardonnay tend to benefit most from aging in French Oak Barrels.

Barrel ReCoop Information

The ReCoop process focuses on ensuring no residue of wine or wine trace such as ethanol remains in the barrel and all heat affected wood from the original toasting is completely removed. These goals are achieved with sophisticated tooling and computer controlled processes and guarantee consistency with strict quality control management. All Recooperated barrels go through the same process.

Remove 1/4" of the stave and head material as well as all of the wine soaked wood and the heat-affected wood from the first toast. The heads go through a similar parallel process. Once the barrel and heads have been aged to ensure complete volatization of all ethanol and wine essence the barrel is ready to be toasted. All barrels are hydrated thoroughly inspected and tested prior to shipment.
