Temperature Control!
11.01.12
It is very common to wonder what temperature you should serve your wine at. To maximize the flavor of wine, the appropriate serving temperature of whites should be between 45-55 degrees. The recommended serving temperature of red wines should be between 65-70 degrees.
Often you hear that red wines should be served at room temperature. Of course, this does not mean Texas room temperature in the summer time. It is actually referring to cellar temperature which is about 65 degrees. Never hesitate to put your bottle of red in the refrigerator for 20 minutes prior to serving!
