wine serving
What is the recommended serving temperature and drink window for this 1992 Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru? Should I decant it, and what opener is best for older wines?
This 1992 Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru is best served chilled at 10-12°C. While white wines are not typically decanted, a brief aeration might help this mature Grand Cru express its full complexity. It is currently at its peak or slightly past, so enjoy it soon. For wines over 20 years old, we recommend using an Ah-So opener or a Sovy Vintage Wine Opener to protect the fragile cork.
