wine serving
What are the recommended serving temperature, decanting time, and drink window for this wine? Are there any special opener recommendations?
For this very young 2023 Berthaut Gerbet Echezeaux Grand Cru, we recommend serving it at 16-18°C. Given its youth and Grand Cru status, a significant decanting period of 2-3 hours, or even more, would be beneficial to allow it to open up. The optimal drink window is still many years away, likely from 2030 to 2050+, making it a wine for long-term cellaring. A standard corkscrew is suitable.
