Wine may be stored, nursed and matured in different containers, depending on the purpose and desired wine characteristics. Generally speaking, wine either matures in the presence of oxygen (micro- or macro-oxidation), or in an oxygen-free environment (reduction, hyper-reduction). Depending on the purpose, containers made of different materials are applied: glass, concrete, wood, clay, stone or stainless steel.

Stainless steel containers allow, in all processing stages (mercering, decanting, fermenting, blending, maturing, clearing), easy management of the contained wine:

-they guarantee extremely high hygienic standards
-they keep the freshness of the stored wine for long periods (free of undesired flavors)
-they provide conditions for the maturing of wine without access of oxygen (hyper-reduction)
-they provide conditions for the maturing of wine under controlled access of oxygen (micro-oxidation)
-lifting and mixing of lees (i.e. »bâtonnage«).
