ABSTRACT:
A composite wine container for aging quality wines which comprises a cylindrical metal drum with a depending annular flange at both ends thereof to receive a gasket. Two circular wood end covers are placed at each end of the metal drum to effect closure of the wine container and to impart suitable amounts of tannin flavor to the wine. Each wood end cover may be symmetrically constructed to provide two usable surfaces which are readily reversible. Two locking rings with adjustable mechanisms are disposed about the outer periphery of each wood end cover and each annular flange, whereby the gasket is compressed therebetween to effect a fluid-tight releasable seal.
