wine serving
What are the recommended serving temperature and drink window for this wine? Should I use an Ah-So opener?
This 2017 Charmes-Chambertin Grand Cru is best served at 16-18°C. Decanting for 1-2 hours is recommended to allow it to open up. It is enjoyable now but will truly shine after 5-15+ years of cellaring. An Ah-So opener is not necessary as the wine is not yet very old.
