wine serving
What is the recommended serving temperature and decanting time for this wine, and what is its optimal drinking window?
This Pommard, a fine Pinot Noir, is best served at 16-18°C. For a 2018 vintage, we recommend decanting for 1 to 2 hours to allow its aromas and flavors to fully open up. It is currently enjoyable but will continue to evolve beautifully, with an optimal drinking window extending from 2024 to 2038.

It pairs wonderfully with richer Asian dishes such as roasted duck with plum sauce, braised pork belly (Hong Shao Rou), or a hearty mushroom hotpot.
