Save water with wine - water butts available
17 April 2008
The oak wine barrels we supply have only been used in France for one season before being decommissioned and brought to the UK. As such, unlike most on the market they are very clean and ‘light,’ showing the true character of the oak.
They can also be much more than a garden feature. You may want to use them again in the brewing process, or as an eco friendly water butt.
For just £25 we can convert our oak barrels into a water butt for you. This includes cutting in a hole for the down pipe and drilling a hole for a tap, also supplied. For more information, see our
Oak Barrel section.
The water butts made from our oak barrels will store rainwater that is free, ideal for organic growing and not subject to a hose pipe ban.
