When ageing wine in barrels, the barrels are placed with the bung on top. This position allows the bung to be removed, or the barrel to be unbunged, in order to carry out the topping up process. Ageing then continues with the bung on its side, allowing the bung to come into contact with the wine and become more watertight.
