Serving the Pervale at a temperature of 16-18°C (60-64°F) will unlock its full potential, allowing its aromas to express themselves fully. Decanting it for about 15 minutes before serving is recommended, as it helps to soften the tannins and reveal the wine's subtle nuances. This wine is ready to drink now, but it will continue to evolve and improve with careful cellaring over the next 5-7 years.
