When to Drink Chateau Les Cruzelles, Anticipated Maturity, Decanting Time

Chateau La Chenade is better with at least 2-4 years of aging in good vintages. Young vintages can be decanted for about 1 hour if desired.

Older vintages might need very little decanting, just enough to remove the sediment. Chateau La Chenade offers its best drinking and should reach peak maturity between 3-15 years of age after the vintage.

Serving Chateau Les Cruzelles with Wine, Food, Pairing Tips

Chateau Les Cruzelles is best served at 15.5 degrees Celsius, 60 degrees Fahrenheit. The cool, almost cellar temperature gives the wine more freshness and lift.

Chateau Les Cruzelles is best paired with all types of classic meat dishes, veal, pork, beef, lamb, duck, game, roast chicken, roasted, braised, and grilled dishes. Chateau Les Cruzelles is also good when matched with Asian dishes, rich fish courses like tuna, mushrooms, and pasta.

Denis Durantou also owns other property in the Right Bank including, Chateau Saintayme in St. Emilion and Chateau Montlandrie, located in the Cotes de Castillon appellation.
