This 1998 Robert Arnoux Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru, a 1.5L Magnum, is best served at 16-18°C. Given its age, we recommend decanting for 1-2 hours to allow it to open up. Its optimal drinking window is likely between now and 2030, offering a beautiful expression of aged Burgundy. For older vintages like this, consider using a Durand or Ah-So opener, along with the Sovy Vintage Wine Opener, to protect the delicate cork.

This Grand Cru Burgundy, made from Pinot Noir, embodies an elegant and complex style with notes of red berries, forest floor, and subtle spice, characteristic of a mature Clos de Vougeot. It pairs beautifully with refined Asian cuisine such as Peking duck, roasted pigeon, or mushroom-based dishes like a delicate mushroom hotpot.

This bottle is in excellent condition: the label is perfect (score 10), the fill level is in the neck (score 10), and the capsule has no problems (score 10). For home storage, keep the bottle horizontally in a cool, dark place with consistent temperature (12-15°C) and humidity (60-75%) to preserve its quality and ensure proper cork hydration.
