'Galatea' Galaxy!
The Galatea Galaxy is the family of 'Galatea' barrels, which from 2024 will expand by doubling its capacity.
Galatea has an elongated, feminine, elegant shape. Its 'egg' shape makes it possible to increase the volume of the container while still retaining the same capacity to exploit convective motion. The process is carried out thanks to the spherical ends, which in maceration with the skins help to keep the cap compact and homogeneous. The stainless steel support is palletisable and easy to level.
According to Ovid Galatea was a beautiful sea nymph, in love with Acis, a young shepherd whose lover she was, but also the object of desire of the Cyclops Polyphemus. The latter, finding the two in an amorous situation, seized with jealousy and killed him. The nymph, grief-stricken, turned her blood to keep their love affair alive. A character from mythology linked to the myth of Polyphemus. Just like the bewitching nymph, Galatea is elegant and seductive, perfect for a refined wine cellar.
