FAQ

We make oak barrels since 2003

We have over 20 years of experience in oak barrel production, which is why we have answers to any winemaker’s questions.

What makes romanian oak so unique?

Romanian oak, matured at the 45th parallel, is well known for its straight and fine grain, contact structure and high level of tannins. The slow growth and the fine porosity contribute to the unique aroma and a gradual integration of flavors, ideal for refined wine aging.

How is the wood for staves selected?

We select Quercus petraea and Quercus robur species for their superior density and fiber. The staves are split along the grain and naturally air-dried for a minimum of 24 months, ensuring optimal aging, stability, and the preservation of the wood’s unique properties.

What toasting levels we offer?

Our barrels are available in different toasting levels: light, medium, medium-plus, heavy. Each level is thoroughly controlled to develop a certain aromatic profile, giving winemakers the ability to achieve the desired character and complexity of the wine.

How we guarantee the wood trasability?

Each barrel is 100% traceable and has a documentation that certifies the source and the wood processing, offering winemakers the certainty that our barrels are authentic and made from high-quality wood.
