Restore the full value of wood.
A patented, no-shaving barrel regeneration process developed in Gironde to extend the useful life of wine and spirits casks.
Preserve the wood. Restore precision to ageing.
At TEDEM, regeneration does not mean removing material. Our thermo-oxidative approach acts within the barrel while respecting the wood and its original toast.
The aim is a clean, stable barrel ready for further use, with an aromatic expression selected for your wine, spirit and ageing objectives.
One barrel, several expressions.
From mineral neutrality to a new aromatic signature, we tailor the finish to the desired profile without standardising your ageing program.
