225 L externally regenerated oak barrel

Externally regenerated Oak barrel 225 L

External regeneration with oxygenation and tannin enrichment. Regenerated oak barrel is to be used with red wines.

As well as being extracted from the grapes during fermentation, tannins are also found in the wood, so the wine also acquires the aromas during its stay in the barrels or barriques.

Another function of tannins is that of a preservative, in fact they also act as antibacterials protecting the wine and ensuring its longevity.
