When to Drink Domaine de Beaurenard, Anticipated Maturity, Decanting Time
Domaine de Beaurenard can be enjoyed on the young side. Young vintages should be decanted for 1-2 hours. This allows the wine to soften and open its perfume. Older vintages might need very little decanting, just enough to remove the sediment.
Domaine de Beaurenard is usually better with 3-6 years of bottle age. Of course, that can vary slightly, depending on the vintage. In the best vintages, the wine should be consumed within 8-16 years after the vintage.
