BARRELS
Tonnellerie Baron and its rack company
OxOline have specialized in barrel-fermentation equipment for years. "We are
pretty widely credited with pioneering the
system, which allows for red grape barrel
fermentations, more than 10 years ago,"
said Sebastian Lane, the firm's managing
partner and western U.S. representative.
Baron offers its "Vinification Integrale"
system, which is comprised of a small
steel circular hatch that's connected to
a long valve opening with a screen that
allows winemakers to take samples or
separate the free run from the pomace.
Once fermentation is complete, the valve
and hatch can be removed, the hole sealed
with a steel cap and the barrel can be
used for aging.
Barrels are loaded either by connecting a must pump or by dumping berries
directly through the opening. Baron
recommends supporting the weight of the
hoses if pumping directly rather than letting the full weight of the hose pull on the
hatch opening.
Winemakers conducting barrel fermentation often move the barrels into
warmed rooms for temperature control.
However, Baron produces custom heat
exchangers or chillers that can slide
