Extreme care is needed with the cork. Use a two-pronged cork puller (Ah-So) or a Durand. Decant gently for 30-60 minutes to remove any sediment and allow it to slowly open up, but be cautious not to over-aerate. Serve at cellar temperature, around 16-18°C (60-64°F). Appreciate the nuances of a wine that has gracefully aged for decades, understanding that its primary fruit may have receded, giving way to complex tertiary aromas and flavors.
