Modern Cooperage
The MODERN COOPERAGE BARREL
High-quality wine production made easier than ever before
- The Modern Cooperage barrel is constructed of food-grade stainless steel and shares similar external dimensions with a classic 225-liter barrique barrel
- The barrel dimensions allow for storage on existing rack systems for barriques/foudres/tonneaux.
- Stainless steel makes cleaning and storage significantly less labor-intensive.
- Modern Cooperage barrels can hold 26% more wine due to their significantly thinner outer walls.
- The inner stave rack system can accommodate zero to 150% of the surface volume ratio of a traditional oak barrel.
- Different oxygen-permeable membranes can provide a constant oxygen transfer rate upon request, equivalent to that of wooden barrels.
- Modern Cooperage enables the cost-effective use of new oak for each vintage, along with customizable oak extraction based on the quantity, type, and specification of the staves used - with the option to combine staves and toasting levels from multiple cooperages.
We didn't invent the barrel; we made it better.
- Modular stave selection during harvest - spontaneous decisions for oak usage - barrel by barrel.
- Separately managed oak extraction and oxygen transfer.
- Batonnage without opening the container and thus without excessive oxygen ingress.
- Practical, easy-to-clean solution for red wine fermentation.
- The smooth inner surface allows for quick and complete cleaning and disinfection of barrel surfaces.
- Reduced wood usage due to more effective exchange of wood surfaces with the wine, thereby reducing the risk of microbial contamination.
Improved technologies offer significant economic advantages
- Long-term reduced costs for oak wood and physical barrels by up to 50% or more.
- Variable delivery options, including purchase or leasing.
- Reduced labor costs in preparing new barrels.
- Reduced labor costs by 24% due to fewer barrels to manage and maintain.
- Reduced labor costs by eliminating maintenance of empty barrels.
