The chestnut barrel is a classic cellar container and is ideal for storing wine and vinegar. It is handcrafted in Italy by skilled artisans to ensure a high-quality product that fully reflects Italy’s rich winemaking heritage.
It consists of several chestnut wood staves held together by iron hoops, with the number of hoops varying depending on the barrel’s capacity. The top of the barrel features a hole, also called a bung hole, designed for filling, while one of the side faces will need a hole for inserting a tap. The barrel is usually supplied without this hole, which must be added by the user in the desired position and flow.
The barrel has always been one of the most used products in wineries for winemaking and storing wine.
