Concrete wine tanks for UK winemakers, in partnership with Winecrete.

concrete wine tanks - row of concrete eggs in a winery

We supply concrete wine tanks from Winecrete, a Spanish manufacturer of reinforced concrete tanks, to wineries and vineyards across the UK. Concrete brings thermal stability and a distinctive character to fermentation and storage, and it sits alongside stainless steel so you can choose the right vessel for each wine.

Why concrete

A different kind of vessel for winemaking

Concrete behaves differently from stainless steel, and many winemakers choose it for exactly that reason. Winecrete highlights these characteristics of its tanks:

  • Thermal inertia - the mass of the concrete helps keep wine temperature stable
  • Micro-oxygenation during ageing
  • Neutral, hard-wearing reinforced concrete construction
  • Concrete eggs that support the natural movement of wine

Concrete suits wineries that want to organise production by parcel, variety or cuvee, and it works well next to stainless steel rather than replacing it.
