Flavoured and spiced… the magic of the Barrique

The “barrique” is a small wooden barrel, of French oak, with a capacity of 225 liters, diffused in the oenological practise of many winegrowing Countries. It is used in the delicate and long phase of the refinement of wines.

• Shorten the length of maturation and aging
• Allow that more coloured substances can be extracted and stabilise them.
• Soften and makes less pungent the tannins that represent the structure of wines
• Give to wines softness and roundness
• Fostering the transfer of wine aroma, giving to the taste the notes of vanilla, coffee, chocolate and  much more.
