Interesting article by Jancis on the oak cooperage from FranzStockinger:

In Waidhofen/Austria. His barrels are regarded as the RollsRoyce of oak. Doesn't provide a whole lot of details from Franz. There are a few other articles that provide a bit more detail if you search them out.
This is the oak that Morgan uses in his Staves of Waidhofen SauvBlanc, one of the best SB's in Calif. Imported by RajParr and ?? Here in the US. I don't know of what other winemakers use Stockinger.
