Blocks, chips and inserts - Zig zag

Zig zag

Origin

Our wood products for oenology are made from French oak (Quercus petraea. L. and Quercus robur. L.) certified PEFC

We guarantee the provenance and traceability of the wood used, from cutting in the heart of our forests in the Grand Est to delivery of the final piece to your cellar.

Thanks to a rigorous process of natural drying in the open air, the oak gradually releases its tannins and humidity. After a minimum of 24 months of maturation, it is ready to give its finest aromas.
