Domaine LePlan-Vermeersch GT-1 (Châteauneuf-du-Pape)
Stylish, with a very modern leaning, the wine is full bodied, polished, silky, round and loaded with smoky, ripe, dark, red spicy fruits, licorice and olive tapanade. If the oak manages to fully integrate, this will be even better. 1,465 Views Tasted Jun 23, 2016 |
When to Drink Domaine Leplan Vermeersch Chateauneuf du Pape, Anticipated Maturity, Decanting Time
Domaine Leplan Vermeersch can be enjoyed on the young side. Young vintages can be popped and poured, or decanted for about 1 hour, more or less or take. This allows the wine to soften and open its perfume. Older vintages might need very little decanting, just enough to remove the sediment.
Domaine Leplan Vermeersch is usually better with 3-5 years of bottle age. Of course that can vary slightly, depending on the vintage. In the best vintages the wine should be consumed within 4-14 years after the vintage.
