wine serving
What are the recommended serving temperature, decanting time, and drink window for this 1964 Heidsieck & Co Monopole Diamant Bleu? What opener should I use for this very old vintage?
For this exceptionally rare 1964 Heidsieck & Co Monopole Diamant Bleu Champagne, serve well-chilled at 8-10°C. Decanting is not recommended for Champagne, especially one of this age, but handle gently. This wine is very old and should be enjoyed now. For such an aged bottle, we strongly advise using an Ah-So opener, Durand opener, or Sovy Vintage Wine Opener to prevent cork damage.
