Long-Term Storage (Unopened)
To preserve the wine’s structure and aromatic complexity, follow these storage recommendations:
- Keep bottles in a cool, dark place, protected from direct sunlight and vibration.
- Ideal cellaring temperature: 12–18°C (55–64°F) with stable conditions.
- Store bottles horizontally to keep the cork hydrated and prevent oxidation.
- Properly stored, this Tannat can evolve gracefully for 5–8 years due to its tannin structure and oak aging.
After Opening
- Re-cork tightly and store upright to minimize oxygen contact.
- Keep in a cool environment (wine fridge recommended).
- Best enjoyed within 4–6 days for ideal freshness.
(If vacuum-sealed or preserved with inert gas, it may last slightly longer.)
Serving Tip
- For best expression, decant 30–60 minutes before drinking to soften tannins and open aromatics.
We take great care to ensure your wine arrives in perfect condition.
