Winemaking in oak barrels is becoming more and more common in Switzerland. The main supplier to Swiss oenologist is France, particularly its traditional area of the Allier, Limousin, Burgundy, and Vosges. Yet the Swiss forests might constitute an economically interesting source of wood for barrel making. The purpose of the present paper, which is based on a diploma work carried out at the Changins Technical Institute, is to show the validity of this concept. It is made up of the following parts: a botanical and pedological study of the forest where the wood for the construction of barrels was yielded; an analysis of the main olfactory components of the wood as well as of the wines; a series of winemaking runs in barrels submitted to various treatments during their construction; a series of sensorial evaluations at several stages of winebreeding
