When to Drink Domaine des Peres de L'Eglise, Anticipated Maturity, Decanting Time
Domaine des Peres de L'Eglise can be enjoyed on the young side. Young vintages can be popped and poured, or decanted for about 1 hour, give 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 des Peres de L'Eglise is usually better with 2-4 years of bottle age. Of course, that can vary slightly, depending on the vintage. In the best vintages, the wine should be consumed within 3-12 years after the vintage.
