wine serving
What are the recommended serving temperature, decanting time, and drink window for this 1990 Henri Rebourseau Gevrey Chambertin?
For this 1990 Henri Rebourseau Gevrey Chambertin, we recommend serving it at 14-16°C. Given its age, a brief decanting of 30-60 minutes might be beneficial, but be cautious with older Burgundy. It is likely fully mature, so enjoy it now. We suggest using an Ah-So opener for older vintages like this to protect the cork.

The bottle has a label with a score of 4, indicating it is damaged or stained. However, the fill level is excellent with a score of 10 (in neck level filled), and the capsule is perfect with a score of 10. The label damage is cosmetic due to age. Handle with care.
