As the wine industry continues to embrace the rich complexity that bourbon barrel aging lends to red wines, we understand the challenges you face in securing a steady supply of these sought-after barrels. We are excited to offer a cost effective solution that maintains tradition, increases consistency, and even goes green!
Recondition and reuse the barrels you already own.
Our proprietary reconditioning process goes beyond mere refurbishment. We have perfected a patented technology that not only cleanses and rehydrates the barrels but also focuses on a comprehensive revitalization of the bourbon compounds and flavor profiles within the wood itself. This meticulous process replenishes the tannins and compounds crucial for enhancing the intricate flavor profiles that have captured the hearts of discerning consumers.
Distinguishing our approach from traditional STR or scrape retoast methods, our reconditioning process encompasses a holistic restoration, emphasizing the rejuvenation of the original bourbon characteristics that are essential for the distinctive, beloved taste experience. By prioritizing the complete reseasoning of the wood and ensuring the reintroduction of the authentic bourbon notes, we guarantee a revitalized barrel that not only saves you time and resources but also guarantees consistency and availability.
Moreover, our method significantly reduces the occurrence of loose char, consequently mitigating the operational challenges associated with barrel maintenance and facilitating a seamless emptying process, all the while enhancing the overall aging experience.
Join us in our commitment to sustainability and preservation. Let our innovative reconditioning solutions be the answer to your barrel procurement concerns, ensuring a continuous supply of premium bourbon barrels at a fraction of the cost, without compromising the distinctive characteristics that make your wines truly exceptional.
We look forward to the possibility of collaborating with you to elevate your winemaking journey while championing a more sustainable and cost-effective approach to barrel utilization.
Please don't hesitate to reach out for further information or to schedule a trial.
