wine serving
What are the serving recommendations and drink window for this 1987 Chateau Mouton Rothschild?
This 1987 Chateau Mouton Rothschild, a 750ml bottle, is best served at 16-18°C. Given its age, we recommend using a Durand, Ah-So, or Sovy Vintage Wine Opener to protect the cork. Decanting for 1-2 hours can help it open up. While 1987 is an older vintage, it can still offer a delightful experience, though it may be past its peak drinking window for some.
