Le Nez du Vin Oak Kit: Exploring the Influence of Oak Barrels on Wine

  • The book has been completely rewritten to incorporate the latest discoveries in history, silviculture, and chemistry, providing insights into the impact of oak barrels on wine's sensory characteristics. Covering everything from oak species to winemaker decisions, it delves into the various factors that influence the intensity and quality of the woody character in wine.

  • Renowned wine writer and tasting trainer, Léa Desportes, serves as the author and coordinator of this updated edition.

  • The content has been verified by Philippe Darriet, Director of the Oenology Research Unit at the Institut des Sciences de la Vigne et du Vin in Bordeaux, who also contributed the foreword.

  • Comprising 56 pages of illustrated and educational text, the book also includes a four-page notebook on barrel making and associated vocabulary.

  • Unlike concrete and stainless steel, wood imparts distinctive aromas to wine. This box set features twelve notes that are most representative of woody aromas in wine, including oak, green wood, coconut, vanilla pod, and more.

  • As a new addition, each aroma bottle now comes with a large index card (16 x 23 cm) detailing the origin of the aroma.

  • The box set features a new, modern, bright green cover and serves as a companion to the 54-aroma masterkit, making it an essential tool for wine trade professionals (oenologists, sommeliers, producers) and enthusiasts looking to enhance their tasting skills.

  • This product with all its components and support materials is available and fully translated into ENGLISH, SPANISH, FRENCH and ITALIAN.

  • Handmade in France. Our aromas come with a 5-year guarantee and can last up to 10 years when stored in optimal conditions.
