The wine may be served at the best temperature for the tasting. For the sweet wines, this temperature is around 10°C. It could be suitable to open the bottle at the right time too. A airing could sometime benefit to the wine, specially for the oldest vintages. You can also decant the wine into a decanter. It helps to separate any deposit often present in old wines and to develop the bouquet.
