This 2000 Volnay Champans 1er Cru, a mature red Burgundy, is best served at cellar temperature (16-18°C). Given its 24-year age, we recommend decanting for 1-2 hours to allow it to open up. Its optimal drink window is from 2010 to 2030 and potentially beyond. For older vintages like this, consider using a Durand, Ah-So, or Sovy Vintage Wine Opener to protect the delicate cork.
