Fermentation and aging
Box of 2 units (20 sticks per unit)

XtraChêne's R&D team developed the Stick 22.90, intended for the aging process of premium red, white or rosé wine.

The distinctly unique characteristic of the Stick 22.90 lies in its shape: its square base, measuring 22 mm (7/8''), and length of 90 cm (35.4''), is ideal for allowing a progressive diffusion of oak compounds to release into the wine. The Stick 22.90 adds greater complexity with more blended results and is ideal for aging processes of 6 months or more. 20 sticks are linked together to form a Stick 22.90 unit.
