Complexity and Richness for Your Wines
Our 18mm staves are specifically designed for slow, gradual extraction, ideal for long aging with intense and distinctive aromas. Crafted from carefully selected American oak, naturally seasoned for a 36 months, they bring rich and warm notes to your wines.

These staves reveal characteristic aromas of vanilla, coconut, and subtle spices, while preserving the fruit. Perfect for complex red and white wines, they add roundness, smoothness, and structure, with well-integrated tannins.

Features:
- Long and controlled extraction: Ideal for aging periods of 6 to 12 months, allowing smooth integration of oak aromas.
- Aromatic complexity: Signature notes of vanilla, coconut, and spices that blend harmoniously with the wine profile.
- Certified for organic winemaking: Suitable for organic use, certified by ECOCERT (EU & NOP).
- Dimensions: 18x50x950 mm; 500g per stave.

The Enological Decision Support Kit - PRIMARY COLORS TANNINS is designed for you, oenologists, to simplify and speed up decision-making with tannins that express well-defined oak and toasting typologies. It allows you to understand the impacts of oak, whether French or American, as well as the influence of different toasting gradients on wine.

Based on these tannins, the kit also offers the possibility of extrapolating these results to staves, thus helping you anticipate the effects they will have on the structure, balance, and aromatic profile of your wines. This enables you to refine your choices and precisely adapt your practices according to the enological objectives you pursue.

Tailored Solutions for Winemaking
The "La Recette" kit offers a quick and simple way for winemakers to assess and enhance their wine’s profile. By adding just one drop of tannin solution to a 100 ml glass of wine, winemakers can instantly observe changes in flavor, structure, and balance. This hands-on approach provides immediate feedback, allowing for rapid adjustments and refinements to the wine.

Whether the goal is to add freshness to whites or complexity to reds, "La Recette" eliminates the long wait for oak aging trials by simulating the effects of oak and tannin integration in real-time. Winemakers can anticipate the impact of 18 mm staves without waiting months, making this kit an indispensable tool for optimizing wine quality efficiently.

Our fresh, untoasted French oak chips, matured for 36 months in the open air, are perfectly suited for application from harvest through aging. In pre-fermentation, they provide effective protection against oxidation while preserving the grape's primary aromas. During aging, they add structure, enhance wine stability, and improve texture, all while respecting the aromatic balance. They promote the harmonious integration of tannins, contributing to complexity and length on the palate.

Our Finely Toasted Oak Chips offer a refined solution for enhancing the structure, complexity, and aromatic profile of your wines. Carefully crafted from premium French oak, these chips undergo precise toasting to bring out balanced notes of vanilla, spice, and subtle roasted aromas. Ideal for use during fermentation or aging, they enhance the integration of tannins and contribute to a rounded mouthfeel with added depth and length.

Designed for flexibility, these chips allow winemakers to fine-tune the aromatic expression and mouthfeel of their wines, achieving desired results with consistency and ease. Available in a range of toast levels, they deliver nuanced complexity without overwhelming the wine’s natural characteristics.

Infusion bag of 10 kg (22 lb)

Our Oak Barrel Inserts are specifically designed to rejuvenate used wine barrels by reintroducing essential wood compounds that enhance the complexity and persistence of your wine. As barrels age, they gradually lose their ability to impart these desirable characteristics—after just one year, a barrel releases about 60% of its oenological potential, and by the third year, it primarily offers micro-oxygenation with minimal wood compound contribution. These inserts provide a cost-effective and sustainable solution to extend the life of your barrels and elevate the quality of your wine.

Key Features:
Revitalize Used Barrels:
- Extend the life of your barrels by replenishing their ability to impart desirable oak characteristics, reducing the need to purchase new barrels.

Thick Sticks for Slow Infusion:
- The substantial thickness ensures a slow and consistent release of wood compounds, enhancing complexity and providing a lingering finish to your wine.

Equivalent to a Seasoned Barrel:
- Achieve the effects of a one year barrel's contribution without replacing your existing barrels.

Stainless Steel Linkage:
- The oak sticks are connected by a neutral, recyclable, and durable stainless steel link, ensuring purity of flavor and ease of handling.

Cost-Effective and Sustainable:
- Optimize resources by maximizing the utility of your barrels and minimizing waste, aligning with eco-friendly winemaking practices.
