To make wine you need barrels. Less well-known than the profession of winegrower, that of cooper requires know-how as much as passion and attention.
A keg is not just a container for wine. The birth of a barrel is the culmination of a long process.
This explanatory video shows us how the oak woods are kept for three years by Gilles Bartholomo for three years, and how they are assembled and circled with hoops, without the slightest nail, to form the barrels in use at Arton. Woodworking reveals the aromas and identity of wines and spirits.
The art of cooperage is a well-established tradition in the Gascony region. It begins with the selection of the best oaks, followed by a long period of ripening of the staves-a board obtained by cutting a block of wood, and which is used to shape each of the longitudinal pieces of wood assembled to form the body of a barrel. This process extends, as we have seen, over three several years. Then come the cutting and calibrating, the assembly of the staves (longitudinal parts) by hand ...: so many steps carried out by hand, long and meticulous!
It is a pleasure for us to make you discover these technical know-how and the trades around the manufacture of these objects.
So if you are asking yourself the question: how to create your own wooden barrel? This video will make you discover an art carefully preserved in Gascony and put to good use for l’Armagnac of Arton. Learn about the steps involved in handcrafting an oak barrel and how the boards are attached without a nail gun.
This video dedicated to the art of making wooden barrels (barrel making) as we did 2000 years ago, in a lively and friendly way. It is aimed at apprentice winegrowers and wine merchants, but also at anyone interested in the subject. She invites you to discover the cooperage-it does not cover the renovation of a wooden barrel.
