When to Drink Les Perrieres de Lafleur, Anticipated Maturity, Decanting Time
Les Perrieres de Lafleur is much better with at least 2-4 years of aging in good vintages. Young vintages can be decanted for 1 hour or so, allowing the wine to soften and open its perfume.
Older vintages might need very little decanting, just enough to remove the sediment. Les Perrieres de Lafleur offers its best drinking and should reach peak maturity between 3-12 years of age after the vintage.
