SAGARTE
Imported through Rich Xiberta,
Sagarte racks are manufactured
in Spain and feature a unique,
multi-sided design so that racks
are stacked on top of racks and
not barrels. The company's latest
product is the Abau Extraction
rack that features a slider in
which a barrel can be pulled
from within a rack to be topped
or racked without the entire stack
needing to be broken down. The
racks can be stacked seven high.

OXO
French cooper Tonnellerie Baron
also produces the OxO line of
racks that are designed specifi-
cally for barrel fermentation. The
company's new M600 monobloc
caters to barrel fermentation of
red grapes in large vessels such as
puncheons. The single rack fea-
tures an integrated gearbox that
can spin a large barrel on alumi-
num rollers with stainless steel
ball bearings with just a power
drill. A drip tray makes removing
lees or wastewater cleaner, and
the rack and barrel can be moved
with a pallet jack.
