Flextank® 230 Gallon Apollo™ Egg Wine Tank
The 230 gallon apollo egg Flextank® is engineered for superior fermentation and maturation. Its unique egg-shaped design promotes natural convection mixing and cap concentration, which enhances extraction and flavor development during fermentation. Once fermentation is complete, this tank doubles as a long-term storage vessel, offering flexibility for wineries. Made from food-grade polyethylene, the apollo egg tank provides precise oxygen control for consistent aging results. Unlike oak barrels, which vary in grain tightness and permeability, Flextank® ensures uniform oxygen transfer, reducing the risk of oxidation and contamination. Forklift compatibility makes handling and transport simple, while its recyclable construction supports sustainable winemaking practices.
