Can someone re-word this for me?
I suspect it may not match Russian...

probably,sth like: ferment brandy in wood containers.

Then it doesn't match Russian.

I don't think 'ferment' is very accurate. Brandy has already been distilled before it is put in barrels to age. It's about removing some of the nastier tasting chemicals and adding a hint of taste from the cask's wood.

yup, I agree, it's a sketchy rewording...
