The Doreau Collection known for its craftsmanship and innovation in barrel-making, offering products that enhance wine flavor profiles. Doreau Tonneliers blends tradition with modern techniques, allowing winemakers to customize barrels for optimal flavor, aroma, and texture. One standout option is the Selection Thierry Chauffe Blonde barrel, which is aged for three years without toasting, providing greater structure and fruit presence in wines. Other Doreau offerings include:
Doreau l'Atelier: Large formats for bulk aging and fermentation, crafted by master coopers to ensure consistency and control over the aging process.
Doreau Ideal: Made with Eastern European oak, this collection offers a distinct profile, known for its subtle tannin structure and balanced aroma.
Doreau Bourgogne: Tailored for Burgundy-style wines, this collection enhances aromatic complexity and terroir expression.
The Vernou Collection is ideal for creating wines with robust intensity and complexity. Crafted with the utmost attention to detail, Vernou barrels feature a special toasting technique that imparts a rich, balanced flavor. With roots in the Cognac region, this collection reflects generations of expertise in wood selection and toasting to create the perfect vessel for aging powerful reds or delicate whites. The result is a refined oak profile that complements the wine’s inherent qualities. Their patented Roll-Fermentor comes in three sizes and is ideal for fermentation.

Cornerstone Cooperage
Using tight-grain American oak sourced from Pennsylvania’s top forestry company, Cornerstone barrels are water-bent to develop soft tannins. Their custom braziers provide long toasts, keeping smoke out of the barrel, which results in barrels that bring notes of caramel, spice, and baked bread to your wine.
