I have a bottle(s) of older vintage Charles Krug wine. When is it best to drink, what is its value?
Depending on how wines are stored and the intrinsic quality of the wine when it was originally blended can affect how a wine ages and how well it will drink. Wines that have leaky capsules are almost certainly faded beyond their peak. If your wine has been kept in a hot closet, its quality can also be compromised. We at Charles Krug suggest that if your wine has been cellared for ten years or more, you might want to drink it now. Please let us know if you have opened and enjoyed an older vintage.
