Representing the finest oak wine barrels Home FAQ Contact Mel announces his retirement! Welcome Welcome to the Mel Knox website. We (that’s the editorial we talking) have gone into semi-retirement but hope to provide information that is helpful. There is no newsletter anymore so don’t try to sign up for it. I represented two cooperages in North America: 1. Tonnellerie Francois Freres: Julie Guffy and gang now represent Francois Freres and Francois Freres Hungary in the United States of America and British Columbia. I advise her and then she ignores me and does what she wants. 2. Tonnellerie Taransaud: Moke Berg now represents Taransaud and Kadar in the Western United States, British Columbia, and Baja California. I advise him and sometimes he listens to me…about where we are going to lunch. — Mel (415)519-0769 Wines by Mel Home FAQ Contact © 2016 Knox Barrels. All Rights Reserved.
