Cask woods in Douro valley today!

Here's a pic of me and my uncle showing three woods used in casks for Port Wine Ageing in the Douro valley. Chestnut, mahogany, and oak. Now chopped up for the wood stove. Still smelled like wine!

Those are some serious pieces of wood, that must have been a very large cask. They will make great firewood. Thanks for sharing.
