With a history dating back to 1877, Seguin Moreau is an expert as a foudrier, specialising in oak vats and casks from 10hl to 620hl.
Large-format oak
Built for the project, not the price list
Large-format wood is rarely a stock item. A vat has to suit the cellar it stands in, the volume it holds and the wine it's meant to carry, which is why these are made to order rather than picked from a range.
Let our teams' expertise support you and provide you with a solution to realize your one-of-a-kind project.
Seguin Moreau's work in French oak stretches back to the nineteenth century.
From compact cellar vats through to full-scale foudres.
Large-format cooperage is a discipline of its own, and a recognised one here.
Where to start
What we'll need to know
A vat conversation moves faster with a few basics in hand. None of it needs to be final, it just gives the cooperage something to work from.
Capacity
The working volume you're after, anywhere between 10hl and 620hl.
The space
Where it will stand, and how it has to get there. Access shapes a lot of the design.
The wine
What you intend to ferment or age in it, and how much oak influence you want.
