wine serving
What are the serving recommendations and optimal drinking window for this wine?
This 2016 Chambolle Musigny 1er Cru is a youthful yet expressive Burgundy. We recommend decanting for 30-60 minutes to allow its delicate aromas to unfold. Serve at 14-16°C (57-60°F). It is enjoyable now but will truly shine and develop further complexity over the next 8-12 years.

Expect a delicate bouquet of red berries, violets, and earthy undertones, with silky tannins and vibrant acidity. It's a superb match for lighter Asian fare like steamed fish with ginger and scallions, delicate dim sum, mushroom stir-fries, or even a subtle Japanese hot pot.
