The barrels, barrels, casks or wine vats are a handmade jewel. The coopers make them by hand through a painstaking process, which requires a lot of experience.

The barrel is one of the decisive factors in the taste of the wine. It is where it rests before being bottled, where it oxygenates, softens and acquires the notes of wood and roast, which it absorbs from the barrel.
