When to Drink Chateau Reysson, Anticipated Maturity, Decanting Time

Chateau Reysson can be decanted for an average of 1 hour, give or take. This allows the wine to soften and open its perfume. Older vintages might need very little decanting, just enough to remove the sediment.

Chateau Reysson is usually better with at least 2-4 years of bottle age. Of course, that can vary slightly, depending on the character of the vintage. Chateau Reysson offers its best drinking and should reach peak maturity between 3-9 years of age after the vintage.

Serving and Decanting Chateau Reysson with Wine, Food, Pairing Tips

Chateau Reysson is at its best when served at 15.5 degrees Celsius, 60 degrees Fahrenheit. The cool, almost cellar temperature gives the wine more freshness and lift. The wine of Chateau Reysson is best served with all types of classic meat dishes, veal, pork, beef, lamb, duck, game, roast chicken, roasted, braised, and grilled dishes.

Chateau Reysson is a perfect match with Asian dishes, hearty fish courses like tuna, mushrooms, and pasta as well as cheese.
