When to Drink Chateau La Lagune, Anticipated Maturity, Decanting Time

Chateau La Lagune needs some time before it can be enjoyed. Young vintages can be decanted for about 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.

Chateau La Lagune is usually better with at least 6-9 years of bottle age. Of course, that can vary slightly, depending on the vintage character. Chateau La Lagune offers its best drinking and should reach peak maturity between 7-25 years of age after the vintage.
