The color is deep gold and drifts towards brownish. In addition to notes of dried raisins, there are also nutty, plum-like and even caramel aromas.Pre-used wooden barrels: Notches in the wood, external stress cracks or possibly an uneven base are not quality defects, but are rather determined by the nature of the construction and the previous use of the barrels.

The small sherry barrels (3 l - 50 l) of new European oak are first steamed by us to soften the existing tannin. Then they are filled for up to 12 months with sherry of the cream variety, which we purchase in bulk directly from selected bodegas in Spain. The barrels are stored for aging at our facility in Bad Dürkheim.After your order the barrels will be freshly emptied and dispatched. They are perfectly appropriate for a sustainable, exclusive maturation and aromatization of beer, corn, whisky but also e.g. for allocation with beer spirits.The barrels are equipped with metall hoops. Flavor:Dark tropical wood, notes of dried fruit, plums and elegant sweetness. Used wooden barrels: Notches in the wood or, in certain circumstances, an uneven base, do not constitute a quality defect, but stem from the idiosyncrasies of the production method and the prior use of the barrels. The usage of the barrel will not be affected by those! The barrels are very carefully checked by us at the exit control against sensor and technical errors.

In terms of taste, the Sherry presents itself full-bodied with a lot of pressure and lasting. The colour is deep gold and drifts into brownish. In addition to notes of dried raisins, there are also nutty, plummy and even caramel aromas.The modern practice of making sherry casks for the whisky industry, also known as “cask seasoning”, works as follows:Fresh oak casks are made specifically for this purpose, usually from American or European oak.After a storage period of around 12 months, the barrels are delivered freshly emptied from the bodegas to our warehouse in Bad Dürkheim, where they await further transportation under the best possible conditions.Depending on its size, an emptied sherry-seasoned cask can still contain up to 15 liters of sherry wine that has been absorbed by the wood.By default, the barrels are equipped with a silicone bung.

Freshly emptied sherry fino barrels. The barrels were used for approx. 30 years. The staves of the freshly emptied barrels are still saturated with the unfiltered sherry. Production and characteristics:Fino is made from the Palomino grape and undergoes a special ageing process known as "biological ageing". This means that the wine matures during storage under a protective layer of yeasts (flor), which prevents oxidation. Biological ageing gives Fino its characteristic dry taste and freshness.Aroma and taste:Fino has a light straw yellow to pale gold color. The aroma is characterized by floral notes, almonds and a hint of sea salt. The taste is dry, light, with a refreshing acidity and a subtle bitterness on the finish. Fino sherry is a wonderful choice for lovers of dry, light wine who appreciate the complexity and nuances of organic ageing.The barrels are fitted with a silicone bung as standard.Pre-finished wooden barrels: Notches in the wood, external stress cracks or possibly an uneven bottom are not quality defects, but are rather determined by the nature of the construction and the previous use of the barrels. This does not affect the functionality of the barrel. We check the barrels very carefully for sensory and technical defects during the outgoing inspection. We accept no liability for cracks or fissures that occur during maturation.

Freshly emptied barrels of Palo Cortad sherry. The barrels were used for approx. 30 years. The staves of the freshly emptied barrels are still saturated with the unfiltered sherry. Production and characteristics:Palo Cortado is the result of an unusual and not fully understood development in the sherry cask. It often begins as a Fino or Amontillado before becoming a Palo Cortado due to natural processes. It combines the elegance and finesse of an Amontillado with the richness and complexity of an Oloroso.Aroma and taste:Palo Cortado has a wide range of aromas, from nutty and salty to intense notes of dried fruit and caramel. Palo Cortado is dry on the palate, but it can also have a subtle sweetness that sets it apart from other sherry varieties.Color:The color varies from a light amber to a deeper mahogany, depending on the length of time it has been aged in the barrel. Sherry Palo Cortado is a delicacy for lovers of dry sherry who appreciate the complexity and versatility of this unique drink.The barrels are fitted with a silicone bung as standard.Pre-used wooden barrels: Notches in the wood, external stress cracks or possibly an uneven bottom are not quality defects, but are rather determined by the nature of the construction and the previous use of the barrels.

Freshly emptied Oloroso sherry casks, ideal for storing and maturing whisky, brandy, grain, etc. Nice sweetness, full body flavour! The barrels were used for around 30 years. The staves of the freshly emptied barrels are still saturated with the unfiltered sherry. Made out of American White Oak. Based on the specific manufacturing method the Sherry develops a flavour rich of almonds and yeast, occasionally also reminding of hazelnut and walnut which is exclusively peculiar for this wine.The most characteristic for Sherries is that they are firstly produced from a dry white wine. This wine is treated with brandy after the agitation being completed and thus increased from originally 11 to 12 to 15 to 19.9 alcohol percentage. After that it ripens in unclosed 500 l wood barrels. In order to sweet the Sherries Muscatel or Pedro Ximenez wines will be added before the filling. The grapes of this varietal are not immediately pressed after the harvest but first dried. The juice of these grapes is very concentrated and the yeast does not turn all sugar into alcohol. During the Sherry manufacturing process exclusively Palomino, Moscatel and Pedro Ximenez can be used, other grape varieties are only cultivated for table wine and ordinary table wine production in the province of Cádiz. Sherry is blended from wines of different years during its barrel ripening process. Oloroso is produced without bloom layer by oxidation and is darker and stronger in its flavour and in principle rather dry, with amber until mahogany colour and a nice nut flavour (oloroso). The alcohol level of an Oloroso amounts to 17 to 20 % vol. Barrel will be deliverd with a silicone bung.
