Winemaking Notes:
An advanced oxo barrel racking system allows for rolling the barrel in place. To lock the lees into place throughout the barrel without having to remove the bung. This reduces oxygen absorption in the wine and preserves delicate aromatics. While also moderating oak extraction. This process gives the wine a creamy texture and allows for a seamless transition of wine and oak over time.
