wine serving
What is the recommended serving temperature and decanting time for this 2002 Henri Perrot Minot Mazoyeres Chambertin Grand Cru, and what is its optimal drinking window?
This 2002 Grand Cru Burgundy is over 20 years old. We recommend serving it at 16-18°C (60-64°F). Decanting for 1-2 hours will allow it to open up beautifully. For older vintages like this, we highly recommend using a Durand, Ah-So, or Sovy Vintage Wine Opener to protect the delicate cork. It is currently in its mature drinking window, offering complex tertiary aromas, but still has good life ahead.
