History

Established in 1987.

An early innovator in reconditioning wine barrels; ReCoop Barrels was one of the first cooperages in California Wine Country to use specially engineered machines. Our patented machinery planes the wood with the grain, removing 14″ of the interior, ensuring all wine-​penetrated wood is removed. Our process of planing with the grain (not cross-​cutting) is used to achieve the utmost flavor from the oak and optimize the oxygenation benefits. A smooth interior finish allows for uniform toasting, revealing flavors of creamy vanilla, sweet toffee and butterscotch, to spicy undertones of cinnamon, ginger, cardamom and nutmeg, or, a mild to rich smokiness, depending on your toast specifications, the original cooperage, and oak forest/​region.

Let us help reduce operating costs and your environmental footprint with a «green» alternative to a new barrel; either through the purchase of reconditioned barrels, or by reconditioning your existing barrels.

ReThink, ReUse, ReCoop
