The Sylvain Laboratory: Researching to Achieve Excellence
Guest blog from ITek Wine and the Sylvain Laboratory
” A good cooper must understand the wine maker’s problems and be able to provide appropriate solutions.”
Don’t look for lab tables or test tubes; in this research laboratory the star is wood. We could imagine that it was simply a barrel workshop, but it is here that tests are made to explore all the potentialities of the wood and their impact on the wine, depending on the grape varieties used and the feature we are looking for.
