Our Ranges
Serie Miquel
A blend of wood from a selection of the most beautiful forests, chosen for their balance. The wood seasoning lasts on average 24 months in the open air, away from any pollution. This range emphasizes roundness, softness and structure : its versatily is its identity.
The toast levels are divided into three (MB, MRL and MR) and can be adapted according to your needs. They vary between 2 hours and 2 hours 15 minutes on an open fire without a lid.
Types of heating :
• MB – Mouillée Blanche
• MLR – Mouillée Rouge Léger
• MR – Mouillée Rouge
LA SELMER
This range is mainly composed of French oak, to which are added oak from Germany, Switzerland, and/or Austria. This blend, combined with our Selmer toast, gives your wines great tension on the palate, freshness and elegance : the Selmer barrel defines and structures the wine with precision.
Toast levels are divided into three (B, S, and R); for white wines they give a fresh and structured profile, while for red wines they create some depth that often combines floral notes, tension, and aromatics on the finish. The average toasting process is around 3 hours and 15mn.
Types of heating :
• B – Blanche
• S – Spéciale
• R – Rouge
