OH>15®
This OH> 15® technology FIÇI is the result of research conducted at the Demptos Center; It is based on an isolated and selected selection of wood for its ability to balance alcohol-rich wines such as those produced in the southern regions.
The goal is to help grape varieties find their full expression and achieve a better balance using innovative barrels designed to reduce the effects of ripe fruit. To achieve this, the Demptos Center research staff was able to isolate wood that contains variable forms of the ß-ß type that offer more resistant chemical bonds and are less likely to turn into phenols during frying. This wood is only available in very small quantities and is used to make OH> 15® drums. This is what limits the phenol content in low acid grapes with high potential alcohol content and preserves the spicy notes.
The Bordeaux barrel is the result of knowledge passed down from generation to generation and is Demptos' representative.
Founded thirty years ago Demptos determining the rankings in 1855, established partnerships with the most prestigious properties to create excellence. Produced with a know-how gained over nearly two hundred years, the Bordeaux barrel is shaped according to the traditions of cooperation to meet more specialist requirements than ever before. It is an exceptional product chosen for the long-term maturation of great wines and can be seen lined up in some of the best known cellars.

TRADITION
Tradition barrel, a fine example of the Demptos style, was born out of research on the importance of veins in wood selection. It has become the Demptos reference in terms of quality and repeatability.
With this product and its organoleptic qualities, Demptos built on the research conducted at its Center to offer a choice based on more than the geographical origin of the wood. The effect of the grain of the wood, highlighted by research by our team of scientists, means that Cooperage can now offer an option with Tradition barrels that provides a perfect balance between aroma, tannin and macroporosity. This product now accounts for 60% of Demptos sales.
The Paradox® barrel is characterized by an intense, deep fry made without roasting the surface and protecting the wood against the aromatic notes produced by a traditional toast.
The process used in its production exposes the wood in the Paradox® barrel to high temperatures without causing the reactions that occur in a dense toast made by the traditional method. Color and frying / roasting aromas are not encountered in wines matured in them. This process also reduces the tannin content extracted from the tree. The outer shell of the Paradox® barrel is protected from direct exposure to flames, no change due to combustion.
