It’s hard to beat a glass of chilled Sauvignon Blanc when those summer temperatures begin to rise! With the heat of summer upon us, the popularity of non-oaked Sauvignon Blancs’, Chardonnays’ and other white wines continue to increase as an attractive wine option. Until recently, it would be hard to find a Chardonnay that was not aged in oak. Oak was the standard. Today, those same Chardonnay’s are being aged in stainless steel wine barrels. In fact, many wine labels now tout the fact that they are no longer aged in oak barrels! Ranging in size from 5 to 55 gallons, Skolnik’s stainless steel wine barrels are being used domestically and internationally by wine makers that invest in new technologies for aging. Skolnik’s stainless steel wine barrels continue to be a qualified alternate to oak, and play an instrumental role in adapting to the change in consumers desire for non-oaked wines. In the near future, we expect to see “Aged in Stainless” proudly displayed on wine bottles throughout the world.
