wine serving
What is the recommended serving temperature and drink window for this 1990 E. Guigal Côte-Rôtie La Mouline?
Serve this legendary red wine at 16-18°C. Given its 1990 vintage, it is likely at or near its peak, so we recommend drinking it soon. For older wines like this, consider using an Ah-So, Durand, or Sovy Vintage Wine Opener to protect the fragile cork. Decanting should be done carefully, if at all, to separate sediment, and for a short period (30-60 minutes) to avoid over-oxidation.
