225L semi-fine grain oak barrels

As well as the origin of the wood, the seasoning of the staves, the toast level and the percentage of new barrels in the cellar, the grain of the barrel’s oak is a determining factor in the quality of the finished wine. Tonnellerie Marchive offers a range of 225L oak barrels whose staves have been carefully sorted to obtain a selection of semi-fine grain oak.
These barrels will enable you to enhance the structure of your wine.
