Nobile Block Sensation Kg 5

Noble Block Sensation Kg 5

The size of the "oak blocks" used influences the speed of extraction of the wood compounds. The smaller the product, the faster the extraction and the shorter the contact time: because of their size, the Blocks are a solution for the rapid marketing of wines. Their design allows for short ageing periods (3 to 4 months) and results comparable to ageing with Staves.

Fermentation or ageing: Microorganisms have an impact on the use of oak wood. During alcoholic fermentation and malolactic fermentation, yeasts and bacteria degrade certain aromatic compounds in the wood, changing the balance of taste. The result is a better integration and a more elegant perception of the woody character.

Aromatic expression: Sweetness, vanilla and toast.

Origin: French oak (Quercus petraea, Quercus robur) and/or American oak (Quercus alba). NOBILE® is committed to the PEFC programme, Pan European Forest Certification, to promote sustainable forest management and ensure biodiversity.

Aging: The forests benefit from a natural maturing phase in the park for a minimum period of 24 months in the open air.
