Toasted Small Oak Barrels and Kegs for Wine Making
Our small oak barrels and wine kegs are artisan crafted from oak and are best suited to oaken small batches of wine and port.
Such a small oak barrel gets medium toasted to impart stronger tannins that enables it's wine to oaken at a much quicker rate when compared to a larger winery oak barrel.
These small oak barrels are available in 2, 3, 5 and 10 litres and each wooden barrel is banded with 4 steel rings and in a light or rustic outer oak wood finish.

Charred Mini Oak Barrels and Casks for Whisky Maturing
