Wine barrels. Made from oak,these barrels are used to store wine and 'age' it over many months or years. The changes that take place include slight evaporation and oxygenation of the wine,and chemicals from the wood (such as phenols) adding to the flavour of the wine. The vintage (year) of the wines has been written on each barrel. These barrels were made by the Vicard barrel makers. Photographed in Italy | |
