PREMIUM WINE BARRELS FROM COGNAC – FRENCH & AMERICAN OAK FOR PERFECT MATURATION

In the heart of the Grande Champagne region of Cognac, the Tonnellerie de Cognac produces premium-quality wine barrels that combine traditional craftsmanship with state-of-the-art coopering. These handcrafted barriques and tonneaux are made from meticulously selected oak and are among the most sought-after barrels for high-end wine aging.

EXCEPTIONAL WOOD SELECTION FOR OPTIMAL WINE AGING
The cooperage uses only fine-grained French oak from the prestigious forests of Bertranges and Centre France. These oaks promote gentle micro-oxidation and balanced tannin integration, ideal for aging elegant red and white wines with structure and finesse.

In addition, American white oak from Missouri and Pennsylvania is used to add depth and aromatic complexity. Known for imparting vanilla, caramel, and toasted notes, these barrels are perfect for full-bodied wines with bold, expressive character.

GENERATIONS OF CRAFTSMANSHIP AND EXPERTISE
With decades of experience and a deep understanding of oak, the Tonnellerie de Cognac handcrafts each barrel to the highest standards. Every barrique and tonneau is custom-toasted (light, medium, medium+, or heavy) to unlock targeted flavor profiles and ensure long-term aging performance.

PREMIUM OAK BARRELS FOR EXCEPTIONAL WINE AGING

Our premium wine barrels are crafted from hand-selected oak of the highest quality – specifically chosen for winemakers who prioritize refinement, aroma development, and aging depth. The oak undergoes natural air-drying for 30 to 36 months, allowing it to mellow harsh tannins, stabilize the grain, and enhance its aromatic potential – the perfect foundation for demanding wine maturation projects.

We use fine-grained oak from renowned French forests, valued for its high density, consistent grain, and slow growth. These characteristics promote controlled micro-oxidation, which is essential for building complex aromas and achieving a balanced, harmonious wine profile during barrel aging. The result: wines that gain depth, structure, and elegance over time.

Our oak barrels impart subtle notes of vanilla, caramel, toast, and spice, which integrate beautifully with the wine’s natural fruit character. This results in a nuanced and well-rounded flavor profile. Each barrel is handcrafted with traditional cooperage expertise and tailored to the specific needs of wineries around the world.

As an exclusive alternative, we also offer premium barriques and tonneaux from two of France’s most respected cooperages: Maury & Fils and Giraud-Galiana. Both are renowned for their traditional barrel-making craftsmanship, innovative techniques, and commitment to delivering the highest level of aging performance.
