Cellaring & drinking window
Wine Spectator suggests 2024–2040 for the standard 750mL bottling of this wine. This listing does not specify bottle size, so confirm the format before relying on that window. Well-stored bottles may be enjoyed now; taste before deciding how much air to give them. Store unopened in darkness at a stable temperature around 55°F (13°C), away from vibration; keep natural-cork bottles on their side.
Pairing & serving
Pair with roast beef, lamb or porcini dishes. Serve at 60–64°F; taste first, then decant if the tannins need to soften.
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; developed wines can fade quickly. Let the pour warm slightly before drinking.
