Decanting is often beneficial for older red Burgundies to separate any sediment and allow the wine to breathe and express its tertiary aromas. Decant gently about 30-60 minutes before serving. Serve at a cool room temperature, ideally between 16-18°C (61-65°F), to best appreciate its intricate layers of flavor and aroma.
