Vertical red winemaking tanks

Streamline your red wine vinification with advanced vertical tanks that optimize oxygen management, gentle cap crumbling, and precise temperature control, ensuring the perfect balance of tradition and innovation for wines destined for immediate enjoyment or long-term aging.

Facilitates Controlled Red Wine Vinification

The SELECOMPACT from Gimar is an innovative vertical red winemaking tank designed for sophisticated vinification processes. These tanks utilize an automated cascading pumping system to maintain optimal contact between grape skins and juice, critical for red wine flavor extraction. Key technologies include OXYCONTROL and OXYPLUS for precise oxygen management, THERMOSOFT for temperature control, and DENSIMATIC for density monitoring. The system’s versatility supports a wide array of red wine types, including Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Noir, while ensuring consistent quality for young and aging wines. Capacities range from 23 to 332 hectoliters, allowing adaptable scaling for diverse winery operations. The control panel, featuring a DIGIWINE electronic board, integrates seamlessly into existing setups with programmable remote options through VINISUPERVISION. Maintenance is simplified with a mechanical extractor and optional screw conveyors for efficient solid removal, enhancing both performance and ease-of-use in demanding winemaking environments.
