Using Recycled Wine Barrels in New Jersey Wine Cellars

As for wine aging, the wooden wine barrels have a significant effect on the flavor, color, and texture of the wine that is being fermented. Oak, for example, has the special ability to add great flavor, depth, body, and texture to wine. French oak creates strong aromas and flavors in the wine, while the American variety imparts intense tannins and coconut flavors.

Designing Unique New Jersey Wine Cellars with Wine Barrels

We build New Jersey wine cellars with exceptional features. We use wooden barrels have long been used in the making of alcohol. Spirits such as wine and whiskey have traditionally been aged in wooden barrels as this technique allows some of the features of the barrel to infuse the alcohol with hints of vanilla or sweet notes that are very similar to tea.

Different Uses of Wine Barrel for Wine Cellars

These days, wine barrels serve purposes other than wine aging and storage.  The trend now is to buy old wine barrels and use them in designing custom wine cellars, wine display areas, or any other place where they can lend their vintage appeal.

But how can reclaimed wine barrels be used in your wine cellar? If broken down into long strips, they can be used for wine cellar flooring. A great thing about reclaimed wine barrel flooring is that no two pieces will be the same — each one is unique because they have aged differently and have been labeled differently.
Some people use them as beams on the roof of their cellar, while others use the wood from the barrels to line their countertops. An ingenuous way of using the wine barrel is to actually use it as a wine rack where you can display your vintage wines, creating a romantic, rustic look.
These barrels can also be used to accessorize and create a unique feature in New Jersey wine cellars by carving the whole barrel or just the barrel end with any design or logo that you want. The whole wine barrel can also be used as chair, a small side table, and even a small container or cabinet!
