wine serving
What are the serving recommendations and drink window for VIK Millahue 2022?
For VIK Millahue 2022, a premium Chilean red blend, we recommend serving it at 16-18°C (60-64°F). Given its youth and concentration, decanting for at least 1-2 hours is highly recommended to allow it to soften and express its full aromatic profile. While enjoyable now with decanting, this wine has excellent aging potential and can evolve beautifully over the next 10-15 years. A standard corkscrew or Sovy Vintage Wine Opener will be suitable.
