(7) Double Walled & Insulated Field Erected Wine Tanks – The inner tank is 30′-0″ dia x 30′-0″ high stainless-steel dimple jacketed, truncated roof with 4′ rise, flat sloping floor. The inner tank is insulated with 3″ of polyisocyanurate foam and cladded with stainless steel outer shell that is 30′-6″ dia. x 30′-6″ tall. These tanks were built from the top down using mig and tig welding processes. The dimple jackets on the inner tanks were spot welded and welded around the perimeter to seal the two pieces together. The dimple jacket is then inflated to create a void for the glycol to flow through. This jacketing allows the winery to control the temperature of the wine during fermentation all the way through bottling. Over 180 Tons of stainless steel were used in the construction of these tanks. These seven tanks in total hold 1,127,000 gallons, enough wine to make 474,027 cases of wine or 5,688,324 bottles of wine.
