BILLON BARREL STATS - PRICE LISTS
Tonnellerie Billon is managed by Vincent Damy who oversees 22 coopers and and an annual production of just over 12,000 barrels. Billon also owns and manages a small stave mill located on the outskirts of Beaune. Jacques Damy, Vincent's father, is administrator of Les Tonnelleries de Bourgogne which oversees Tonnellerie Billon's and Tonnellerie Damy's operations.
Billon (and Damy) barrels have received the CTB (Centre Technique du Bois) stamp of approval, which guarantees to wineries and consumers around the world that these barrels meet the highest standards of quality in the industry. Of the more than 40 cooperages in France, only 8 cooperages have been certified by CTB.
News:
In May of 2000, Tonnellerie Billon moved into a newly refurbished, larger cooperage on the outskirts of Beaune. These more spacious quarters permit an increased production capacity while fine-tuning the quality of their barrels.
Vincent Damy has recently commissioned a new computerized sanding machine from Monnot in Meursault. This will ensure that the Billon barrels look beautiful with a seamless finish.
Tonnelleries Damy and Billon have recently implemented a new accounting system. This new system allows integration of billing, accounts payable, real time tracking and reporting of orders. It should allow the cooperages to better serve their customers.
Recommended varietals for use with these barrels:
- Chardonnay, Pinot Grigio
- Barbera, Merlot, Nebbiolo, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese, Syrah
