Bull Dog Pup Barrel Transfer Wand


Gently moving the wine out of your barrels

The Bulldog Pup racking wand uses gas pressure to transfer wine from the barrel allowing easily controlled, gentle flow without agitation or oxidation. This convenient tool is indispensable for achieving extremely clean rackings. The Pup is the top quality racking device for the wine industry.


The quality of North American Pinot Noir has risen significantly since the late eighties. Improved farming practices have been key in producing much higher quality grapes. The Bulldog Pup has been key in retaining wine quality when taking the wine to the bottle. Winemakers discovered when using a pump to move Pinot Noir out of barrels, oxygen and agitation were beating up the wine, destroying delicate nuances and complexity. Don Othman at Bulldog manufacturing addressed the issue by designing a racking wand that utilized an inert gas to pressurize the barrel and gently push the wine without oxygen or agitation. Originally designed for gentle handling of wine, the ultra-clean rackings that are achieved with the Pup have made it an indispensable cellar tool. In the past 16 years, thousands have been sold throughout the world.
