Checked the last one I bought: http://www.hjhansen-vin.dk/2010-barb...rolo-spa-docg/

Its in danish, but it says it is "made in traditional style in big slovenian casks for one year and another year in bottle before release".

So I should look for modern style. It is funny it goes that direction when everyone else seems to be going from oaky towards (in some cases all the way to) unoaked.
