Pairing & serving

Serve at 55–60°F (13–16°C) with cold cuts, roast chicken or mushrooms. Stand upright beforehand and pour gently; avoid prolonged decanting until you have tasted it.

After opening & when to enjoy

Recork and refrigerate after opening. Enjoy the same day for the fullest aroma, or assess the next day before serving; mature wines can fade quickly. Allow a chilled glass to warm slightly.
