Serving Recommendation

Serve at around 60–65°F. Allow the bottle to stand upright before opening so any sediment can settle. Because this is a very mature Bordeaux, open carefully and decant only if needed for sediment. Let the wine evolve gently in the glass.

Food Pairing

Pairs beautifully with roasted lamb, duck, veal, mushroom dishes, truffle risotto, braised short ribs, aged cheeses, and classic French cuisine.
