Advantages
of O2mate
- Why use (barrel)mate instead of conventional systems?
QUALITY
- uses the same method
by which wines mature in barrel
- allows greater control
of the wine's oxygen uptake

of wine and oak
- winemakers can realise
the full benefits of micro-oxygenation whilst maturing wines
in premium barrels; a combination not previously available
COST
- minimal running costs
- requires no maintenance
- reduces wine losses

of maintaining empty barrels while the wine is in tank
FLEXIBILITY

of small parcels not possible with bubbling micro-oxygenation
techniques
- allows the winemaker
to optimise blend fractions in different oak types or with
different tannin structures such as those resulting from
pre or post fermentation treatments
- ideal for small scale
and wine show lots
