Seis periodistas americanos visitaron Diam

Situada en el corazón de los bosques de alcornoques de Extremadura, nuestra fábrica de San Vicente de Alcántara recibe regularmente visitantes de todo el mundo. Clientes, periodistas y diferentes personalidades del vino, vienen a descubrir el proceso de fabricación de los tapones Diam que combina la tradición del corcho con tecnologías punteras.

El 15 de julio, tras aterrizar en Lisboa, seis periodistas americanos de la prensa especializada, reconocidos en el sector vitícola, pasaron varios días en compañía de nuestros equipos para conocer todo sobre nuestra visión, nuestros productos y nuestras ventajas para cada tipo de vino. El programa: visita de la fábrica, presentación técnica, descubrimiento de nuestro laboratorio, degustaciones de vinos de alta gama con tapones DIAM y Mytik DIAM, así como intercambio y ambiente amigable.

“I can’t imagine why any winemaker who uses traditional punched corks and who worries about TCA while wanting the same or better characteristics that have made punched corks the closure of choice for centuries wouldn’t at least consider the DIAM corks.”

"[DIAM] takes [the cork] and they clean them and pulverize them into little granules because they really want to get everything out that is nasty and could spoil [the wine]…and then they clean it with something called super critical CO2…which actually is apparently something that is used in other cleaning processes and it’s neutral"

“The company [DIAM] employs a unique process using supercritical carbon dioxide to essentially volatize and flush TCA and other contaminants out of the raw cork granulate it uses to form its molded closures. The granulate is tested by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry before and after being treated with supercritical CO2, and the finished closures are also tested to ensure they meet required dimensions and functionality. When the products arrive in the United States, G3 performs its own round of analysis to double check for sensory faults and for performance.”

Gracias a todos nuevamente por su interés y su convicción con respecto a la calidad de los productos DIAM Bouchage.
