plastic off plastic?

[Guilhaume gerard]

numbers of growers in the natural wine world are using plastic fermenters.
I propose to drink plastic fermented wines out of plastic cups. Any recomendations on which wines i should put together for this event?

Actually why doesn't anyone discuss plastic and fiberglass fermenters (this includes me)? Every other container a lot more press, but when it comes to plastic/fiberglass I don''t think I've ever seen anyone proclaim so-and-so they like uses giant fiberglass cuves for elevage. I mean I never have, and I've enjoyed a great many wines made this way. I guess it just isn't romantic enough.

You sell the stuff, isn't the answer obvious?

Calling them "resin" sounds the most natural if that's any help...

GG,

You are so much more eloquent when you don't speak.

I''m actually serious, can anyone point me to anything written about plastic/fiberglass fermenters, or give me your thoughts? I know Hank is using some nifty plastic fermenters that are advertised to mimic the gentle oxidation of wood, but I haven't if they work.
