The Vin et Terre jars do not have any coating to ensure direct contact of the wine with the material, thus favouring a moderate and natural micro-oxygenation.
​
Each level is made with the help of a mould and then assembled by hand, which allows the structure to be reinforced while maintaining a certain regularity. However, the pieces remain unique and the size, colour and volume may vary slightly depending on the potter.
​
Stoneware produces straight, mineral, fresh, pure, delicate and light wines, respecting the grape variety, the quality of the fruit and the authenticity of the aromas.
​
Vin & Terre designs the shapes of the jars and Yunqiao, a ceramic engineer, produces them.
