Wine barrel racking grease

Wine cellars use special food-grade greases for their barrel racking systems that slide hundreds of pounds of oak barrels. These lubricants must be completely odorless to prevent contaminating the wine through the wood. Some wineries in France still use traditional tallow-based greases that have been refined to remove all scent molecules. Modern versions use synthetic bases that remain stable in cool, humid cellars for decades.
