White wine storage temperature.
Ideal range of temperature for storing red wine is 50 55ºf or 10 16ºc.
High temperature 65ºf causes the wine to age prematurely thus losing its flavor and balance.
Both red and white wine require their own mode of storage and presentation.
Red wine is generally also served at this same storage temperature.
When chilled too cold the wine also loses its flavor and aromas.
While common to keep whites in the fridge and reds on the shelf that s not what the experts at wine enthusiast recommend.
Proper serving temperature is not the same as proper storage temperature and it varies between wine styles and from varietal to varietal.
