French barrels and tanks, delivered to your cellar door.
Introducing you to our family, our proud partners and your wine solutions, from a single oak barrel to a 620hl foudre, and every vessel in between.
The range
Four ways to shape your wine
Oak and concrete, from the same family of makers. Whatever the vessel, you are choosing from ranges built to be specified rather than picked off a shelf.
Oak Barrels

Makers with a very long memory
The vessels we supply are made by houses that have spent generations learning what oak does to wine, and one that reimagined the fermentation tank entirely.
A history in French oak stretching back to the nineteenth century.
Barrels built around carefully selected wood and refined aging.
From compact cellar vats to full-scale foudres.
Why Ferreira & Sons
One family, the whole cellar
Most cellars end up juggling separate suppliers for barrels, for oak adjuncts, for large-format wood and for tanks. We carry all four under one roof, which means one conversation about how you want the wine to taste, not four.
- Specified, not ordered. Wood type, toast level, container, model and finish are all yours to choose.
- Red or white. The Seguin Moreau range covers both, with barrels built for each.
- A choice of houses. Barrels from four French cooperages, each with its own character, rather than a single range.
- Straight to the source. A direct line to the cooperages in France, from Durbanville.
“Let our teams' expertise support you and provide you with a solution to realize your one-of-a-kind project.” Seguin Moreau
