wine serving
What is the recommended serving temperature and drink window for this 2011 Jean Fery & Fils Corton Grand Cru, and should I decant it?
This 2011 Corton Grand Cru is now 13 years old and is likely entering its prime drinking window, with potential for further aging. Serve it at 16-18°C.

Expect notes of dark cherry, plum, forest floor, and savory undertones that develop with age. It pairs exceptionally well with richer Asian dishes like braised pork belly, roasted duck, beef stew, or mushroom and truffle-based cuisine.
