Cellaring & drinking window
The producer describes Arcanum as built to age while remaining approachable young. A numeric window for this exact bottle has not been verified, so taste before committing to extended storage. This is guidance for a well-stored bottle, not an expiry date; storage history and personal taste affect when to open it. 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
Serve at 60–65°F with herb-roasted lamb or mushroom ragù. Taste first and allow 30–60 minutes in a decanter if still closed.
After opening & when to enjoy
Recork and refrigerate upright. Enjoy within about 3–4 days for best flavor, allowing each pour to warm slightly before serving.
