The emergence of Stainless Steel Barrels and Tanks as Alternative
Over the last few years, stainless steel wine barrels are precisely design and developed by manufacturers to meet the need of winemakers in all stages of development, fermentation, maturation, and storage of wine. The actual duration in the usage of oak wine barrel by winemakers is three to five years. Once the functional properties of the barrel reduces, winemakers have to dispose used barrels. However, stainless steel barrels are portable, durable, reusable, easy to clean, and maintain.
From the profitability point of view, winemaking is getting costlier day by day. Therefore, wineries are aging their wine in stainless steel barrels and tanks progressively. When the less oaky wines are needed, winemakers use oak wine barrel alternatives in the form of chips, powder, and blocks. Stainless steel is considered as sustainable alternatives to wine barrel as it is one of the world’s most widely recycled material.
