Large-format bottling

DO NOT CUT CORNERS WHEN BOTTLING YOUR STANDOUT FORMATS

Large formats are a showcase for estates, yet their bottling is often compromised because unsuitable tools are used. Our large-format bottling service, a package of technical and human excellence, finally gives your most precious bottles the treatment they deserve.

WITH A SPECIFIC UNIT DEVELOPED AND MANUFACTURED IN OUR WORKSHOP, FOR BOTTLING LARGE FORMATS UP TO 27 LITRES:

  • Bottle rinsing is possible, irrespective of format
  • 1 stoppering unit “programmed” to limit uptake of dissolved oxygen to 0.15 mg/l
    => complete control of oxygen: average oxygen input of 0.3 mg/l (wine + headspace).
    10 to 15 times less than bottling with a “gun”, and 5 to 7 times less than traditional bottling units
  • 8 separate drawing taps allow management of gas/vacuum/gas cycles according to each format, for uptake of 0.15 mg/l dissolved oxygen
  • Two-stage cartridge filtration micropallet prior to bottling, limiting dead volumes
  • Laser marking on all formats

SERVICE MANAGED BY OUR WINE TECHNICIANS, WHO ARE STEEPED IN OUR OENOTECHNICAL CULTURE:

  • batch management
  • Management of dry-matter parameters: cork humidity, extraction force, batch logging
  • Management of wine parameters: temperature, turbidity, O2 concentration
  • Management of bottling parameters: internal stopping pressure, stopper insertion, volume content labelling, cartridge clogging
  • Management of cleaning parameters: logging of chemical and heat cleaning cycles, absence of chemical residue inspection
  • Delivery of a copy of all monitoring documents at end of job.

PRE-BOTTLING FILTRATION: FILTER PRESS

This service is about more than filtration. We prepare your wines to meet the requirements (turbidity, CO2 concentration, SO2 inspection) of bottling, before your wine reaches the end consumer.
