Oak extract of French oak heartwood.

Oak is a key player in winemaking and when it comes to alternatives to traditional oak barrels, oak concentrate stands out as an optimal choice.

Quercyl employs a natural production method that enables the extraction of all substances found in the oak heartwood – the most esteemed part of the wood. In powdered form, the resulting extract harbors the same concentrated active ingredients as new oak barrels, facilitating the gradual development of spirits’ organoleptic characteristics.

The elevated concentration of ellagitannins in Quercyl renders it exceptionally effective during the maturation phase. Choose Quercyl for a refined and controlled oak influence in your winemaking process.
