wine serving
What are the recommended serving temperature, decanting time, and ideal drinking window for this wine?
For this young Puligny-Montrachet, serve at 10-12°C (50-54°F). Decanting is generally not required for white Burgundy, but a brief aeration of 15-30 minutes can help it open up. While enjoyable young, this wine has excellent aging potential and will develop more complexity over 5-15+ years.
