When to Drink Chateau l'Isle Fort, Anticipated Maturity, Decanting Time
Chateau l'Isle Fort is better with at least 2-4 years of aging in good vintages. Young vintages can be decanted for up to 1 hour if desired.
Older vintages might need very little decanting, just enough to remove the sediment. Chateau l'Isle Fort offers its best drinking and should reach peak maturity between 2-12 years of age after the vintage.
Serving Chateau l'Isle Fort with Wine, Food, Pairing Tips
Chateau l'Isle Fort is best served at 15.5 degrees Celsius, 60 degrees Fahrenheit. The cool, almost cellar temperature gives the wine more freshness and lift.
Chateau l'Isle Fort is best paired with all types of classic meat dishes, veal, pork, beef, lamb, duck, game, roast chicken, roasted, braised and grilled dishes. Chateau l'Isle Fort is also good when matched with Asian dishes, rich fish courses like tuna, mushrooms and pasta.
