The Vadai World Trade Enterprise manufactures ½ to 1,000 liter sizes of Zemplen forest Hungarian oak barrels made from the Quercus Petrea and Quercus Sessiles species of oak. These are the same tight grained species as the Nevers and Allier species of oak in France. One-half liter to 50 liter sizes are available in plain or hand-carved heads, including a stand, tap and bung. A handcarved crest or logo is also available. Barrels up to five liters are always beeswax lined to prevent wine, brandy or vinegar from changing its original flavor. Larger barrels, the 10 to 50 liter sizes can be beeswax lined or toasted as requested. The barrels come in round or oval shapes as well as in Hungarian, Bordeaux or Burgundy styles. Toastings are available according to winery preference.
