When you receive the bottles at home
Lay them on their side in the cellar, remote from a source of heat, cold, or light, for a two to four week period.

Serving
- Sediment : very often in the course of ageing, it a sediment appears. Don’t be puzzled. It is a sign of quality. When about to serve, pour the wine very slowly into a decanter. A candle can be used to observe the wine through the bottleneck.
- Dishes : Château Verdus wines go with almost everything. They suit food made with red meats, game, foies-gras, and cheese (camembert, Roquefort…).
If possible, always drink the youngest or lightest wine before the oldest or the strongest wine.

- Wine breathing : open the bottle 1 or 2 hours before serving. Decanting the wine will help the bouquet to develop.
- Best temperature : around 17° to 18°C The wine must be chambered away from a heat source.
