Redwood Tanks for the Winery

Ninety per cent of the total United States wine production is aged in tanks of California Redwood, according to figures compiled by B. F. Wade, consulting engineer to the California Redwood Association.

In preparing the first of a new series of tank bulletins for the California Redwood Association, Mr. Wade made many interesting discoveries regarding Redwood in the wine industry. Oldest in point of service is one battery of 30 tanks now in its 83rd year and still free from decay. Many other tanks installed in 1860 were dismantled in 1919 in good condition, after 59 years' service. Another battery of tanks then 25 years old, was dismantled in 1919 and shipped to South America where all are still in use.

Clear All Heart Redwood tank stock is especially selected and graded from the dense butt cuts of Redwood logs.

In his technical bulletins, Mr. Wade describes the selection and grading of Redwood tank stock, how it is cured and treated, how tanks may be cleaned of tartar and mold, what should be done to preserve empty tanks, how to convert from red wine to white storage and many other important details for the wine industry.

fn preparation are tank bulletins for breweries, chemical plants, distilleries, food products plants, petroleum industry, pulp and paper, soap, tannery and textile industries. Copies of the wine tank bulletin and future releases may bg secured from the California Redwood Association, 405 Montgomery Street, in San Francisco.
