Œnological objectives
Sticks Inside Medium ripen the fruit expression and intensify vanilla and caramel notes. The main objective is to create intense pastry notes and a soft mouthfeel.
For what type of wine ?
Sticks inside Medium fit perfectly with wines that have a fresh, vegetal fruit profile or lack body on the palate. This oenological wood can be used on white, rosé and red wines.
Direction for use
When is the right time to apply ?
Application during AF ensures better integration with the wine, while adding sweetness and creaminess. Application during ageing, after MLF, brings out the full aromatic intensity of this wood, with its notes of vanillin, chocolate and caramel, while preserving its impact on the palate.
How much to apply ?
The dosage of Stick Inside Medium should be adapted according to the desired oenological objective. Insert 1 to 3 chains per barrel through the bung hole. The contribution of a 12-segment chain is estimated at ± 30% of a new 225-litre barrel.
What is the contact time for these Sticks Inside ?
During fermentation : leave the staves in the wine during the whole vinification, with an ageing period of 4 to 8 months.
During ageing : 6 to 10 months, depending on the organoleptic objective targeted.
