Boisé’s Oak Portfolio Offers Winemakers Consistent Precision Tools for Winemaking
The impact of climate change has increased the challenges winemakers face when growing grapes and making wine in what is already a complex system. When dealing with any change, whether a new tool, a process revision or the result of the changing climate, winemakers can take several years of testing and observing the outcome before being confident that they can trust its consistency. Boisé by Vivelys oak portfolio offers winemakers precision tools to combat the environmental conditions they experience every year. This year Glenn Jeffries, Boisé Oak Consultant, has observed an increase in the use of premium oak staves. Thicker staves are more effective at simulating the barrel impact on wine due to gradually releasing components during an extended integration period. This gives winemakers time to define their preferred wine profiles and gives them full control in achieving structured and complex mouthfeel in their premium wines without using barrels.

Boisé’s Oak Alternative Solutions for Wine Maturation
Winemakers know one of the critical steps in wine preparation for bottling is the maturation process, which is the period after fermentation. During maturation, wines will develop elegance and complexity through controlled oxidative transformation. Traditionally, most wines have undergone maturation in oak barrels. The combination of oak and measured amounts of oxygen typically results in improvements of sensory characteristics like color stability, aromatic complexity, tannin texture, mid-palate weight and length.  Boisé has offered an alternative modern winemaking approach with their oak products giving winemakers precision tools to create specific wine profiles, guaranteeing efficient and optimum aging in the cellar.  Learn more about Boisé’s Oak Alternatives   When a shorter maturation time is preferred (2-4 months), Boisé offers a diverse selection of oak alternatives in the Origine Oak Chips range that are appropriate for any w

Boisé® Inspiration Stave #20.HD: A High-Toasted Stave Offering a Unique Flavor Profile
The newest 20-millimeter stave in Boisé’s Inspiration line, stands out. “You can tell just from looking at it, the sensory results are going to be incredible and unique,” says Glenn Jeffries, Boisé Oak Consultant. Boisé offers each of their stave flavor profiles in 7mm and 20mm versions, except for their new #20.HD stave, which is only available in 20mm. In order to get the high definition toast of the #20.HD with its depth of flavors, you need a thicker stave that can stand up to the intensity of the toasting process. The #20.HD stave brings toast and mocha notes, increases roundness and sweetness in the mouth, while boosting volume and length on the palate with significant aromatic persistence. “Boisé products stand out for their high concentrations of the aromatics and toasting components that you want without less desirable notes,” says Jeffries. “That distinguishes us and runs all the way through the Boisé lin
