Product Description
The shape of the egg is in perfect geometrical harmony. The natural concrete used to produce Eggoist wine egg them is microporous which enables the micro-oxygenation of the wine. They breathe and can absorb thermal shock. This means any wine temperature increases are gradual. The vats have no angle which creates a vortex providing a natural fluid movement, thereby providing constant wine movement. These vats are created specifically for the exacting wine maker who is interested in biodynamics and fluid energy. The egg-shaped concrete vat can be used as a complement to any barrel just as any vintage can be entirely raised in “an egg” to better preserve fruitiness and freshness. The aromas develop in an optimal manner and no stirring is necessary given the vortex movement.
The 1000 Liter egg includes front manwaywith sample tap, drain valve and vent valve.
