G3’s Phenesse™ oak includes two types of tank staves and chips sourced from high quality oak forests and manufactured by a well reputable oak company. Both Phenesse™ tank staves and chips are toasted using the convection toasting method with a long toasting cycle, after 24 months of seasoning. Its rigid process allows a great control of wood profiles for balanced aromas and characteristics in each lot, every time.

Phenesse™ oak is designed to bring consistent, harmonious results to assist quality winemaking for the North American region.

Staves - Unique 11mm Format

Phenesse™ tank staves come in the unique 11mm format, making the thickness a great compromise for an optimum contact time of 4 to 5 months.
