Serving Advice for this aged treasure: Handle with extreme care, as old bottles can be fragile, and sediment is common. Store upright for a few days before serving to allow any sediment to settle. When opening, use an Ah-So opener or a Durand corkscrew to minimize the risk of cork breakage, as old corks can be brittle. Decant gently, if at all, just before serving to remove sediment. Avoid excessive aeration, as very old wines can fade quickly once exposed to air; a short decant (30 minutes to an hour) might be beneficial to allow it to open up, but be prepared to drink it relatively quickly. Serve slightly below room temperature, around 16-18°C (60-64°F).
