CONSUMPTION TEMPERATURE CONSUMPTION TEMPERATURE
As a general rule, white wines should be served at a temperature between 50°F and 54°F [+10°C
and +12°C] and red wines between 54°F and 57°F [+12°C and +14°C].
Some wines may however be best enjoyed at higher or lower temperatures.
You should also keep in mind that, during the summer, wine is generally enjoyed at lower
temperatures than during the winter.
You should also consider the following:
White wines White wines
White wines are normally not served at high temperatures, since they are generally more acidic
than red wines and not very tannic. Therefore they are more enjoyable at low temperatures.
It is preferable to serve these wines between 50°F and 57°F [+10°C to +14°C]. Young, fresh and
aromatic wines can also be served at 50°F [+10°C], while less aromatic ones are served at 54°F
[+12°C].
Temperatures between 54°F and 57°F [+12°C and +14°C] are for soft, mature white wines that
have been aged for some years in the bottle.
Higher temperatures would favor the exaltation of the sweet character of the wine, at the
expense of the acidity and flavor, which are considered pleasant and desirable characteristics of
this type of wine.
