Carte clients Biopythos

We sell our eggs and jars for every type of wine, in all terroirs! Our clients praise fermentation and maturation with our ceramic components, due to their gustative assets.

Our products bring freshness and minerality to the wine and are very easy to use.

The agricultural school of Libourne Montagne (France) has a 225L stoneware egg and a 500L porcelain jar since 2019. The cellar master Mathieu Lalet testifies:

In egg, the color is very intense, and the nose is open and soft. The taste is very rich with soft tannins. Wine aromas have a particularly good aromatic persistence. During ageing time, there is no wine lost by evaporation or absorption by the egg or the jar. Free SO2 doesn’t move, comparing to a classical maturation in barrel. Eggs and jars are very easy to clean, too”.

In addition, oenologists Bruno Tringali et Margaux Armand-Vauchelet (BTOEV) compared maturation in our eggs to more classical methods. They conclude to a real gustative difference, with “a great tension, some mineral and salty aromas”.

We sell in all terroirs and for all grape varieties! Some returns from our customers:

Mas de Libian, Hélène Thibon, wine grower:

“We were particularly intersted by the high quality of the Biopythos jar in terms of freshness and purity, brought to the wine; as well by the absence of reduction on a grape variety also reputed to be reductive”

Domaine Georges Blanc, Christophe Vial, wine grower and oenologist and Fabrice Sommier, director of the group:

“Wines that have fermented in the porcelain jar have the same type of fermentation as in barrels, except that there is no woody aromas. On the other hand, we have an important vivacity. The wines are therefore more taut with, in the same time, a beautiful substance. For me, it is a very interesting container that can possibly replace the use of barrels because cleaning is much easier.

Champagne Marie Copinet, Alexandre Kowal, wine grower :

“Our Chardonnays cultivated on clay from Villenauxe-la-Grande have a freshly and voluminous side. The ageing of our Chardonnays in eggs of this same clay brings to the wine tension, minerality going up to an iodized freshness and great fluidity of our wines.”

Bruno Tringali et Margaux Armand-Vauchelet, oenologists in BTOEV Consulting :

“This type of container has proven to be an interesting innovation for the enhancement of our Provencal terroirs as we perceive it!”
