We are only interested in the best barrels and to achieve them we have gone back to our roots in research and development of the technology and processes that make it possible to continue making progress.
Quercus is a pioneer in the selection and classification of the wood in the forest itself; it was the first cooperage to manufacture barrels with oak from La Rioja, Navarre and other regions in northern Spain and also the first Spanish company to process 100% of the wood in its own sawmill.
In addition, we use our exclusive system of horizontal rotating toasting (TRH), that allows as many toasting profiles as the oenologist wishes, and we have a small experimental winery that allows us to evaluate the behaviour of different types of oak with different types of toasting.
