French Oak

French Oak (Quercus Petraea) selected from the Vosges Mountains. This oak will provide a higher tannin contribution and respect the fruits of the beverage. The notes present, depending on toast, are that of dark chocolate, coffee beans and exotic, savory spices

FRENCH OAK BLENDED TOAST
(Mix of different toast levels of French Oak)

  • Bordeaux Blend:
    Bordeaux Blend Spirals are packaged in a six-spiral set with a mix of toast levels. Because all six spirals are not of the same toast level, cutting mesh for a lower overall oak dosage will create an unbalanced mix of toast levels.
  • Burgundy Blend:
    Burgundy Blend Infusion Spiral® barrel packs replicate a barrel toasting gradient using a mix of three different toasts. Predominantly light and medium toasts--with a hint of medium plus--the Burgundy Blend creates a low impact oak alternative that respects delicate, oak-sensitive fruit and quietly contributes an elegant and mild background of premium French oak. This multi-toast pack eliminates the need to blend separate barrels aged with different toasts.
  • Rhone Blend:
    Each Rhone Blend pack consists of two medium toast spirals, two medium plus toast and two heavy, all convection-oven toasted to insure consistency and uniformity.
  • Hybrid Blend-:(50%/50% mix of American and French Oak toast levels)
    Each Hybrid Oak Spiral barrel pack consists of three spirals made from tight-grained Vosges forest oak from France and three spirals made from slow-growing, American white oak selected from forests in Minnesota, Iowa and Northern Illinois. Hybrid Oak Infusion Spirals are convection-oven toasted to insure uniform depth of toasting from edge to core and are available in Medium or Medium Plus toast levels.
