FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Is it better to open this 1997 now or keep it longer?

The vintage alone is not enough to decide: no information is provided about its aging potential or storage conditions. Before deciding to keep it longer, you would need to know the bottle’s history and condition.

Should I decant this magnum before serving it?

No decanting advice is provided for this 1997 cuvée. It would therefore be unwise to plan on extended aeration as a matter of course; it is better to assess the wine when you open it.

Is it a good choice to celebrate a 1997 birth year?

Yes, its vintage matches that year and can make opening it personally meaningful. However, this match does not guarantee that the wine is in good condition for tasting, which is not documented here.

Does the “Vieille Vigne” designation mean I can expect a more powerful wine?

This designation alone is not enough to establish this wine’s power or concentration. Without tasting notes or a comparison, it is not possible to attribute a fuller-bodied style to it than to another Beaujolais-Villages.

How many people can taste this magnum at a tasting?

At 150 cl, you can theoretically plan for fifteen 10 cl servings or twelve 12.5 cl glasses. The actual number served will depend on the pour size and the amount usable when the bottle is opened.
