When to Drink Michel & Stephane Ogier, Anticipated Maturity, Decanting Time

Michel & Stephane Ogier, when young, should be decanted at least 1-3 hours, give or take, allowing the wines to soften and open their perfume. Older vintages might need very little decanting, just enough to remove the sediment.

Michel & Stephane Ogier is often better with 5-7 years of cellaring and should be at its best between 10-25 years of age.
