The word of the wine: Bordeaux barrel
Barrels of 220 to 225 litres. The toasting of the barrel to bend the staves (curved boards used to make the barrels) can vary according to the coopers and the demand.

A wine barrel has already been aged for a year and has less impact on the wine than a new barrel.
