When to Drink Chateau Cote Montpezat, Anticipated Maturity, Decanting Time
Chateau Cote Montpezat is better with at least 2-3 years of aging in good vintages. Young vintages can be decanted for up to 1 hour, helping the wine soften to help develop the aromatic character.
Older vintages might need very little decanting, just enough to remove the sediment. Chateau Cote Montpezat offers its best drinking and should reach peak maturity between 2-9 years of age after the vintage.
Serving Chateau Cote Montpezat with Wine, Food, Pairing Tips
Chateau Cote Montpezat is best served at 15.5 degrees Celsius, 60 degrees Fahrenheit. The cool, almost cellar temperature gives the wine more freshness and lift.
