Expect a richer, more amber hue and a bouquet that has moved beyond primary fruit to reveal complex notes of honey, nuts, and dried fruits. The cork may be fragile, so a Durand or an Ah-So opener is highly recommended. Stand the bottle upright for a few days before serving to allow any sediment to settle. Decant carefully, if at all, just before serving, as too much air can diminish its delicate aromas. Serve slightly chilled, around 12-14°C (54-57°F).
