EDITO
At the dawn of 2016, wine lovers
can rejoice: 2015 should be a very
good vintage. From Burgundy to
Bordeaux, the quality promises to
be outstanding. The grapes in the
south of the country even reached
maturity a few days earlier than
usual thanks to spring rains
followed by a very hot summer.
This is exactly where Tonnellerie Sylvain, ever
at the cutting edge of innovation and attuned
to the new needs of customers, decided to test
its latest arrival on the market: a large 600-l barrel
with properties specifically adapted to varietals that fear
oxidation.
You will find the technical details of this latest Tonnellerie Sylvain creation
in this Newsletter and you can follow the different phases in the alchemy of
wood and wine in forthcoming editions.
In the course of these few pages you will notice that Tonnellerie Sylvain is
moving forward: it is now in a position to completely manage all logs without
any waste thanks to progress at Merranderie Sylvain… The new graphic charter
is established. Its dynamic design using the changing shades of ripening grapes
adorns the walls of the buildings erected in 2014, lending new impetus to our logo
while still respecting tradition… Vinexpo was a wonderful event… We continued our
sponsoring activities by extending them for the first time to South Africa, as partner of
the RisCura Red Hot Wine Awards and the equivalent white wine awards.
In addition, I had the great pleasure of announcing during 2015 the arrival of my daughter,
Claire, on the team, following her brother, Rémi, who is taking on new responsibilities with the
acquisition of Foudrerie Marc Grenier, the inescapable quality reference in the world of wine,
especially in Burgundy. My two children will now be helping me to perpetuate the family know-how
and put Tonnellerie Sylvain’s technological progress, professionalism and quality at your service.

SYLVAIN :
POSITIONING, LOGO,
GRAPHIC CHARTER
In 2014, Tonnellerie Sylvain constructed
a modern and innovative 2.000m²
structure, equipped with the best technology and
traceability, enabling it to anticipate and consolidate production
capacities in line with applicable standards and regulations well in
advance of barrel construction.
In 2015, the building is clad in the new design, illustrating the spirit
of the Tonnellerie. The logo and graphic charter are deliberately
modern, evoking a message that spans tradition and modernity,
highlighting the know-how and the precise work of artisan coopers,
Sylvain’s core competence.

REINFORCING THE
FAMILY STRUCTURE:
SELF-EVIDENT IN 2015
In the 80s Jean-Luc Sylvain followed in the steps of his father,
Gérard, and joined the family cooperage installed in the heart of
the Bordeaux vineyards. He perpetuates its tradition of quality
while taking an interest in export. A shrewd man and a veritable
globe-trotter, he conquered faraway destinations like the
United States, South Africa, New Zealand, Australia, Chile and
Argentina. However, he did not forget the historic wine-growing
countries of the old continent, like Italy, Germany, Switzerland
and Spain, where the notion of «craftsmanship» and «the art of
French coopering» take on their full meaning.
His attachment to these values, to cutting-edge innovation, and
his trade expertise earned him the national distinction of Artisan
of the Year and the Entrepreneur of Aquitaine prize. Equally
demanding with himself and his teams, he led the company to
prosperity. Exports now reach 65 to 70% of production per year.
Given these positive perspectives, Rémi Sylvain, Jean-Luc’s
son, took whole-heartedly to the trade. A graduate of the
École Supérieure du Bois in Nantes (school of wood
science and technology), a degree in coopering and
a diploma in wine-tasting (Diplôme d’Aptitude
à la Dégustation), he works as a manager in
the Foudrerie Marc Grenier in the heart of the
Burgundy region. Having reached the age of
retirement, Marc Grenier put Tonnellerie
Sylvain in charge of running his business and
continued to assist Rémi.
Still in 2015, his sister Claire joined the
family business at the Libourne site. Having
trained as an engineer in chemistry and
biology and after working for six years in
Research and Development, Claire also has
dual skills in project/commercial management.
Her background and qualities enable her to have
a global vision and the necessary hindsight required
especially to streamline the management system and
customer follow-up. She sets a priority on human relations
while consolidating the company’s marketing/communication
and trade strategy.
Both Rémi and Claire are worthy representatives of the third
generation, completely committed and perpetuating the values
that Jean-Luc Sylvain transmits to them on a daily basis.

ADAPTING OUR
KNOW-HOW TO
THE EVOLUTION OF
OUR CUSTOMERS’
TECHNIQUES
NEW
PRODUCT
Tonnellerie Sylvain has always produced 600-litre barrels with
a 27 mm shell and two 34 mm heads. They are designed for
vinifying white varietals like Sauvignon, Sémillon and Chenin,
and for aging other Bordeaux and Italian wines. In this particular
case, the winemaker seeks controlled micro-oxygenation in
order to polish the tannins and aromatise the wine lightly with
the wood.
In response to the new technical
requirements of its customers,
Tonnellerie Sylvain has extended its
range with a traditional 600-l barrel
known as a demi-muid that is up to
45 mm thick (raw), elaborated from
the best wood from French forests.
Two types
of barrels have been tested:
- demi-muids made of stave oak produced from split
wood, perfectly watertight. This traditional technique is slightly
more expensive in terms of production due to the lower yield of stave
wood compared to logs.
These barrels accommodate reduction aging, therefore without
introducing oxygenation, for varietals that do not tolerate
oxidation.
A comparative test is underway in Italy, at the winery
Poliziano (Tuscany). Feedbacks will be published in
the next newsletter. From experience and tradition,
Tonnellerie Sylvain recommends stave oak for the US
because it is well suited to the grapes varieties.
Medullary rays
Wine penetration
-demi-muids made of wood sawn from the log: the block.
The greater yield generates a lower cost. Given that the oak is sawn, it is
difficult to follow the grain of the wood 100%, but the greater thickness
makes up for the slight difference in watertightness.
Medullary rays
Wine penetration
Philippe Gard, agronomist and oenologist, viticulture
consultant at Saint-Émilion and owner of the Domaine
Coume Del Mas in Banyuls, chose to age his Grenache
in Grande Réserve barrels and in Tonnellerie Sylvain
demi-muids.
The grapes come from an old plot called La Salette,
with a South-East exposure and considerable density of
7,000 to 9,000 vines/ha on schist soil. It was selected for
the remarkable maturity of the skins, promising a fine classic
balance with a good degree of alcohol and freshness preserved
thanks to the altitude of its location (300 m).
Marie Thomas, Tonnellerie Sylvain’s sales manager for South Africa
and South of France, applied all her skill
and technical knowledge for this procedure.
We will keep up to date with
developments in forthcoming
newsletters.

What is the advantage of aging your wines in a 600L
demi-muid with very thick staves, compared to a
smaller Burgundy barrel?
I tasted other wine-growers’ wines from 600L barrels
and I appreciated the less marked woodiness compared
to the smaller Burgundy barrel. That’s what made me
want to try the Sylvain 600L demi-muid this year.
How do you set about your work?
From the beginning of the maturing process, I
simultaneously monitor the wine from a Sylvain
Sélection Burgundy barrel and a demi-muid. The result
is very different. Thanks to the thickness of the staves,
the 600L barrels have a less woody character. 2015 is a
powerful vintage with a very nice consistency. We’re
looking for a very slightly woody Saint Joseph with fine,
softer tannins and a fruity edge to it.
What are your first observations?
On tasting it, we notice the silky and velvety tannins of
the demi-muid with notes of small red fruits. I’m very
satisfied with the way the wood is integrated, and its
delicate effect on the aromas. At the same time, it has a
remarkable sweet and velvety effect.
The Sélection barrel gives us a wine with a more marked,
less integrated woodiness, with more structural tannins
and less sweetness but, amazingly, a more intense
perception of the fruit.
The maturing will last one year, until October 2016. The
wines will change. We will have to come back and taste
them to have a more global vision of the contribution of
this container.

Large containers demand rare and specialised know-how, a combination
of aesthetics and tradition. This large-scale art borrows from techniques
that are specific to cabinet making and carpentry, and is part of the great
tradition of French craftsmanship.
”
Since 1982 Marc Grenier has made his reputation for himself in the heart
of Burgundy, no more than a few kilometres from Beaune and its famous
Hospices. Imbued with the artisan’s love and respect for wood, it is here that
he produces vats and foudres (large wooden vats) for aging and fermenting
wine. These impressive containers lend subtle aromas to wines, provide
unequalled thermal inertia and unique micro-oxygenation.
There is no room for mechanisation here; 80% of the work is done by hand,
ancestral know-how being the sure guarantee of quality, precision and
the exceptional finish of the products. Such a talent is known throughout
Europe. The characteristic tawny blonde wood of Foudrerie Marc Grenier
products sheds a ray of light in the most beautiful cellars of 14 countries.
Its customers in France go by the names: Cheval Blanc in Saint-Émilion,
Romanée-Conti in Burgundy, Alphonse Mellot in Sancerre, Vignobles Alain
Graillot in Crozes-Hermitage, Domaine Auguste Clape in Cornas, Le Clos du
Caillou in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Château Puech’Haut in Languedoc and
Mas Amiel in Maury... to mention but a few.
Marc Grenier began to envisage retirement in 2015. With no one to take
over his activity, he decided to transfer his foudrerie to the Sylvain family,
thus ensuring the continued transmission of his know-how and the ongoing
maintenance of the quality of his products.
The two families share the same philosophy, the same desire to preserve
the enterprise on a human scale and to maintain high quality craftsmanship.
The foudrerie provides the Sylvain family with a new domain of expertise.
For their part, they will supply the foudrerie with the oak they buy directly
from forests. The wood is matured naturally for 4 years, divided up by the
Sylvain stave mill using the splitting method in order to produce staves for
the foudres like those of the barrels that have made the reputation of the
Tonnellerie Sylvain, with the same traceability and the same high standards
of quality.
Coming from the third generation of coopers, Rémi Sylvain will take over the
management of the foudrerie. Marc Grenier will assist him for several years
in order to pass on the torch. The production team remains the same, the
spirit of Marc Grenier lives on and the virtuosity is ensured.
Many wine-growers in Europe are returning to large containers for
traditional vinification or to age grape varieties that find it hard to adapt to
small volumes, like Pinot Noir or Chardonnay, Sangiovese in Italy, Syrah in
the Côtes-du-Rhône.
Today the Sylvain family wishes to offer its majestic foudres to the United
States and the rest of the world. A subtle alchemy of age-old know-how and
high modern standards makes each of these many-talented giants a unique
piece that enables great wines to reveal their quintessence.

MASTERING
THE RAW MATERIAL
FROM A TO Z…
AN HISTORIC HERITAGE
COMMITTED TO TOMORROW’S
ENVIRONMENT.
Given the changing climate in France and around the world,
Jean-Luc Sylvain is conscious of and attentive to preserving the
ecosystem on which his trade is based, while still retaining his
competitive edge. Nowadays people are interested in producing
new resources from local waste and using vegetal biomass as
an agrofuel.

self-sufficient in terms of energy. An example
of respect for the environment generating a
system of ecological and economic energy

noting that in 2016, a local cogeneration plant
will manufacture biocombustible fuel pellets for
privately-owned boilers from our by-products
From an interview with Boris Labesque,
manager of the Stave Production Unit
at Merranderie Sylvain Bois
”
Tonnellerie Sylvain and the Merranderie Sylvain Bois (on
the same site) are both committed to this sustainable and
environmental procedure. The historical French forestry
heritage is managed by the ONF (National Forestry Office). Oak
takes nearly 200 years to reach maturity, even more in rare
cases, whereas the demand for barrels continues to increase
inexorably.
“
To make 1 m3 of stave, we need 4 to 5 m3
of logs! Which means a loss of 75 to 80%!
The elimination of the bark, sapwood and
heartwood, sawing off the rough face
of the split wood and obtaining
the desired thickness explains
this percentage (cf. diagram).

the

and ecological aspects

Due to Tonnellerie
Sylvain’s high quality
and strategic positioning,
Jean-Luc Sylvain’s criteria
do not authorize the use of
«waste» wood for alternative
products. In days gone by it
was used for heating purposes or
carbonization (charcoal) in Aquitaine.
Today, the by-products resulting from the
transformation of the raw material are used to
good effect by the Merranderie Sylvain Bois. The
process is simple: after a necessary stop at the
cutting station, a conveyor belt conveys them
away to be disposed in 30 to 50 cm briquettes.
Thus, 70 to 75% of unused wood is destined to
be transformed into new energy and, indirectly,
to create work in the region.

EVENTS 2015:
VINEXPO WAS HELD FROM 14 TO
18 JUNE LAST IN BORDEAUX.
The 2015 edition of the leading trade fair for operators in the
wine and spirits sector was attended by 48,500 professionals
and 2,350 exhibitors representing 42
producer countries. The participants
welcomed the profile of
the visitors, both more
professional and more
international than at
previous editions.
Friday June 19, Jean-Luc Sylvain himself conducted visit to
the Tonnellerie. After an excursion on Saturday afternoon to the
Bassin d’Arcachon, the trip continued in the historic French
forest of Tronçais, which owes much of its fame to Colbert,
one of Louis XIV’s ministers. It is highly regarded for the
quality of the excellent oak it provides to Sylvain Tonnellerie.
The following days: an intensive immersion in Burgundy with
a visit to Tonnellerie Meyrieux, prestigious estates and the
Marc Grenier Foudrerie along with Rémi Sylvain, site manager.
The total commitment of Jean-Luc Sylvain (proprietor), Rodrigo
Luna (Export Manager), Rémi Sylvain (Manager of Foudrerie Marc
Grenier) and Claire Sylvain (Process and Communication Manager
at Tonnellerie Sylvain) made this immersion trip a complete
success. A very professional, warm and friendly excursion.
SIMEI (INTERNATIONAL
EXHIBITION OF MATERIAL FOR
OENOLOGY AND BOTTLING)
The 26th edition of the SIMEI, the biennial meeting dedicated to
oenology equipment and bottling, was held
in Fiera Rho Milano from 3 to 6 November,
2015. For four days it was the reference for
vitiviniculture professionals and companies
from all over the world. An interaction with
31,000 professionals from 90 countries and
more than 600 high-level exhibiting companies.
Among them, Tonnellerie Sylvain welcomed a great many of its Italian
customers to its stand, as well as others
from neighbouring countries.
The event was a formidable
opportunity to meet new
clients and to connect
with potential distributors/
agents in Russia, India and
Poland.
As it happens, 151 nationalities frequented the aisles of the fair,
with a noticeable increase in visitors from China (+14%), Japan
(+5%), the United States (+15%), Africa (+18%), and Oceania
(+28%) but also from Southern Europe (+7%). In an increasingly
global market, Vinexpo positions itself as the world’s meeting place
for the profession, with an international DNA, ideal for companies
wishing to develop major export sales.
The Tonnellerie Sylvain sales force and agents seized the occasion
to meet their customers from all over the world at an «off» event…
presenting the art and craft of Tonnellerie Sylvain. A made-tomeasure programme, instructive, very hands-on, from 16 to 24
June inclusive, for American, Canadian, Chilean and Argentine
winemakers.
Fifteen customers had an in-depth encounter with the world of
Bordeaux, visiting renowned estates on both the right and left
banks, using Jean-Luc Sylvain’s Château La Perrière estate near
Saint-Émilion as their base. A «cosy» and wine-tourist estate
for a barrel tasting experience with the added charm of a warm
welcome and French gastronomy.

A SUCCESSFUL
SYRAH EVENING
On 17 December 2015, the
Tonnellerie Sylvain organized
a «Syrah in the World» evening
at the Domaine Courbis in the
Northern Rhone Valley, with
the cooperation of the owners,
Laurent and Dominique. 50
people, representing 25 estates,
came together for a friendly evening of sharing around a grape variety
with a worldwide vocation.
The guests were captivated by the presentation of the Tonnellerie,
French forests and the origin of the woods by Jean-Luc Sylvain
himself. Then Marie Thomas, sales manager for South Africa and
South of France, further piqued their curiosity with a fascinating
presentation of the origins of Syrah.
For, although Cabernet Sauvignon and Merlot initially constituted
Tonnellerie Sylvain’s core business, its involvement in export has led
it to work outside France with this varietal. Today, Syrah represents
50% of French grape varieties, mainly in Languedoc-Roussillon,
Rhone and the South West region. Where we find more and more
wine growers wishing to work these grapes while respecting the fruit,
without excessive wood or heating. Ever attentive to its customers’
desires, Tonnellerie Sylvain wishes to offer them effective products
that are adapted to their needs.
As an illustration of this desire, Laurent and Fabien tasted some
wines being aged at Domaine Courbis:
• Cornas «Les Eygats» Domaine Courbis 2014
(Sylvain Sélection 2012 barrel)
(Sylvain Sélection 2014 barrel)
(assembled from all barrels).

Finally, Fabien Ozanne, oenologist at the Tain-l’Hermitage Dioenos
laboratories, «sampled» Marie Thomas’s explanations concerning the
development of Syrah throughout the world and the specific features
of the foreign wines it produces, while commenting on the tasting of
8 remarkable products elaborated with a large proportion of barrels
from the Sylvain range. These wines were selected from the four
