Since 1875, we are producing barrels to suit the best wines. Because the quality of a barrel is made in the proper selection and maturation of the woods, we think that the pre-crafting care is the most important part to respect the structure and give a remarkable complexity to your wines. "Our professionalism consists in a maximum of care and tradition."

We select only the best oaks in the forests, before the traditional auction purchase. Crafting is made by our technicians in our own facilities, from the oak trunks to the final barrel, to ensure you a consistent process through the years.

We are one of few coopers to propose a selection of nine wood origins, giving a unique complexity of flavours and tannin structure in your blends. Because of our "human-size" cooperage, we take time to have a total respect of our clients, taking care of every barrel that we craft. Our cooperage is using a unique technique for barrel toasting, to achieve consistency from barrel to barrel and year to year.

Moreover, we keep a complete tracking of wood lots to achieve this consistency.
