wine serving
What are the serving recommendations and ideal drinking window for this wine?
This 2018 Meursault Les Genevrieres 1er Cru Magnum is best served chilled at 10-12°C. While it can be enjoyed now, its magnum format suggests a longer aging potential. We recommend a drinking window from 2023 to 2035 and beyond, allowing its complex notes to further develop.
