Working as a traditional cooper for over 30 years, Jean-Louis Bossuet founded his cooperage in 1987, with the will to select oak staves himself and work with the best oak wood to produce quality barrels that would be recognised among the greatests "Châteaux de Bordeaux".

 

By developing and extending his activities, the traditional cooperage has evolved over the years, gaining the confidence of many wineries. In 1996 the company's head office and workshop were established in the village of St Simon de Bordes (45 minutes drive from Bordeaux City - 30 minutes drive from Cognac).

With consistent support and help from his wife, Christiane, Jean-Louis has successively developed a "stave mill site" and a "cooperage site", selecting wood and grains himself, and thus controlling the entire production chain of the barrels, from the beginning in the forests to the final details of the conception, guaranteeing an optimum quality. Since its creation, the cooperage has grown, but has always preserved its quality and traditional way of production.

Traditional and Family Cooperage before anything else


Having grown up in the cooperage, among oak staves, barrels and coopers, Yoan Bossuet learnt the art of coopering in his father's workshop over the years. Today, he has joined his father in developing the family traditional cooperage. His aim is to enlarge the production, keeping the entire traditional way of production. This double heading Father/Son guarantees a transmission of the savoir-faire that has been the success key of the cooperage and will conserve Bossuet barrels quality for years.

 

Each wine has its own character and each winery its own personality. That's why Bossuet Cooperage is consistently evolving with wineries to adapt itself to the different way of breeding and creating quality wines, to create personnalized barrels and products for each winery, following its products all around the world and working as a quality partner with winemakers to help create quality wines.
