wine serving
What are the recommended serving temperature, decanting time, and drink window for this wine? Should I use a special opener?
For the 2011 Corton Grand Cru, serve at 14-16°C. Decant for 30-60 minutes to allow its delicate nuances to emerge. The ideal drink window is from 2024 to 2030. As it's a mature Burgundy, a Sovy Vintage Wine Opener, Durand, or Ah-So opener is recommended to gently extract the cork and prevent breakage.
