Oenobois Stave
New oak staves from selected species Quercus robur and Quercus sessiliflora, sourced exclusively from French forests. These forests are naturally grown without any treatment products. The woods are naturally air-seasoned for a minimum of 24 months before transformation. No chemicals are used during the stages of transformation or storage. Once seasoned, the oak is machined into staves, then toasted a first time to the core with a convection oven and a second time with a superficial oven. The toast can be light (ORIGIN), medium (EXPRESSION), or strong (ABSOLUTE).
