Cellaring & drinking window
Alison Napjus of Wine Spectator recommends drinking through 2035 for this wine in the 750mL format. Enjoy now for freshness or cellar well-stored bottles for more developed aromas. This is an estimate, not an expiry date. 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 around 46–50°F (8–10°C) in a tulip-shaped wine glass. Try with scallops, roast chicken or a delicate mushroom dish; do not decant.
After opening & when to enjoy
Close with a sparkling-wine stopper and refrigerate upright. Enjoy within 1–2 days for the freshest bubbles and aroma.
