Objectives
Œnological objectives
The highly toasted Staves Absolute bring great complexity and aromatic freshness to your wine. The main objective is to add toasty, spicy notes, as well as tension and length on the palate.
For what type of wine ?
Staves Absolute fit perfectly with ripe and over-ripe wines, refreshing the fruit with its smoky notes and fresh spices.
These staves harmonise the balance on the palate of wines lacking freshness and can be used on white, rosé and red wines.
Direction for use
When is the right time to apply ?
An application during AF ensures better integration with the wine while adding
volume on the palate.
Application during ageing, after MLF, brings out the full aromatic complexity of this wood while preserving its impact on the palate.
How much to apply ?
The dosage of Stave Absolute should be adapted according to the desired oenological objective. From 0.5 to 2 staves/hL for red wines and between 0.3 and 1 stave/hL for white and rosé wines.
What is the contact time for these staves ?
During fermentation : leave the blocks in the wine during the whole vinification, with an ageing period of 4 to 6 months.
During ageing : 6 to 8 months, depending on the organoleptic objective sought.
