1970 warre decanting time
Tonight I plan to open a bottle of this. For what it is worth I shall be sharing it with a French man and his Argentinian wife.
How early should I decant?
Thank you

Re: 1970 warre decanting time
I think it is quite a tough old buzzard, so pretty much whatever suits. The last one I opened I liked best when I first opened it though. There is the risk of bottle stink and not having enough time for it to blow off (snigger). I guess if you are going to try and please the woman from Argentina by serving a cow which you have cut off the horns and wiped it's bum then you may wish to have it freshly opened.

I would give it 6 hours or so of decanting.
Re: 1970 warre decanting time
Combined wisdom seems to suggest 'soon' if I plan to drink this about 10pm GMT today!
Thank you both.

Re: 1970 warre decanting time
Are you prepping a meal before serving and enjoying?
if so,
I'd pop as soon as prepping the meal and drinking after every one has finished eating.
allows you to try first then 4-6 hrs later enjoy the rest.

Amazing that a reply containing information from Owen has been classified as 'wisdom'. But there you are!

It's the raging sexual chemistry between us which provokes him. Do you remember 'Moonlighting'? Well I'm Bruce and he's Cybil.DRT wrote:Now, now.
