Mister Douelle<\/h1>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n
Mister Douelle was born in 2012 at the Vin\u00e9a cooperage, near Jonzac, in Saint Germain de Lusignan.<\/strong><\/h6>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

It is the result of the imagination of the coopers who artisanally shape oak wood to create beautiful and high-quality barrels, true vessels for the finest wines in the world.
Its appearance is unique and gender-neutral. Its wide mouth corresponds to what was once the groove of the barrel, a carved channel where coopers insert the barrel\u2019s bottom. Its charming name, \u201cDouelle\u201d, comes from the traditional term used by coopers to refer to the oak staves that form the body of a barrel<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

This little character naturally became the mascot of Vin\u00e9a. Some even call it DOOK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drifting with moods and places, Mister Douelle<\/strong> travels, wandering alone or sometimes in a pack, donning various costumes, amusing expressions, and surprising postures.
It embodies a form of freedom of expression, a creativity tinged with a touch of naivety.
It is also a charming way to repurpose noble waste materials.
As the totem of the Vin\u00e9a cooperage, its mission is to bring a spark of good humor to anyone creative enough to adopt it\u2014thus highlighting and reminding us of our historic vocation: working with passion on an artisanal product to make wine even better!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
