RECONDITIONED BARRELS

We supply carefully reconditioned French and American oak barrels, sourced directly from France and restored at our cooperage in Serbia. Each barrel is renewed with precision, offering wineries a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to new oak while maintaining excellent quality.

Our goal is not mass production, but consistent quality, reliability, and long-term performance. 

The Process

The Reconditioning

Our expert coopers open and fully recondition every barrel, working inside and out. The interior is shaved by 3–4 mm to expose fresh oak, then toasted or charred to the desired level. The exterior is thoroughly cleaned and refreshed before being securely wrapped for transport. This meticulous process ensures consistency, cleanliness, and optimal performance.
