Taylor's Tips: Don't Over-Ice it!

Word has spread that drinking red wine too warm is not the best way to enjoy it. The fruit seems off, the tannins are unpleasant and it reacts poorly with food.

The same is oppositely true of white. If a white wine "clouds up" the glass, it's too cold. When a white is too cold, the flavors remain closed. If you finish a wine and it's still cloudy cold, you just missed out on the true flavor of the wine. The palate detects flavors best closer to room temperature than most would think. This being said, if you have a poor white, it's possible to mask its unpleasant qualities by serving it too cold.

Enjoy!
