wine serving
What are the recommended serving temperature, decanting time, and drink window for this Chateau Margaux 2010?
For this 2010 Chateau Margaux, we recommend serving it at 16-18°C. While not yet 20 years old, using an Ah-So opener can still be beneficial for older corks. Decanting for 1-2 hours will help it open up. This is a superb vintage, still quite young, with a very long drinking window ahead, benefiting from further cellaring.
