When to Drink Chateau Beausejour, Anticipated Maturity, Decanting Time
Chateau Beausejour is much better with at least 12-15 years of aging in good vintages. Young vintages can be decanted for 2-3 hours or more.
This allows the wine to soften and open its perfume. Older vintages might need very little decanting, just enough to remove the sediment. Chateau Beausejour offers its best drinking and should reach peak maturity between 12-40 years of age after the vintage.
Serving Chateau Beausejour with Wine, and Food Pairing Tips
Chateau Beausejour is best served at 15.5 degrees Celsius, 60 degrees Fahrenheit. The cool, almost cellar temperature gives the wine more freshness and lift. Chateau Beausejour is best served with all types of classic meat dishes, veal, pork, beef, lamb, duck, game, roast chicken, roasted, braised, and grilled dishes.
Chateau Beausejour is a perfect match with Asian dishes, hearty fish courses like tuna, mushrooms, and pasta as well as cheese.
