Serving temperature:At what temperature to serve a bottle? Only a very large red can be enjoyed at the temperature of an apartment. In fact any wine loses its quality by heating over 20 ° C.Better serve slightly cold (slightly too hot) as the wine warms in the glass.
Serve the red light (fruits, vegetables) to 12 ° C, the glasses ar warming rapidly.In summer, serve chilled implies a passage through the refrigerator.
Reds tannins (eg Aquitaine or Italian Piedmont) love the area of 18 ° C, so the summer I do not go out (of the cave or a short stay in the fridge) before consumption.
Similarly, some white thrive at higher temperatures than others. I think of Burgundy, the Loire chenin grape alsace and large, I treat them like the red light. By against - like everyone else - I use the white light: cold but not frozen.
Cool down Wine:
So how quickly cool a bottle of wine? Put the bottle in a bucket of water with lots of ice. Water is rapidly melting the ice and the bottle is surrounded by ice water. Soon the wine is cold, and some labels stand out ...
A more dangerous and for the label and the wine would be to surround the bottle with a cloth soaked and put it in the freezer. Water freezes quickly and rapidly transfers the cold (because it is in contact with the bottle).
Feel free to refresh your memory before you open a bottle: This page will remain available on the site.
