We all know that white wine needs to be chilled, and red wine can't get too cold. However, each type of wine should be at a certain temperature range in order for the flavors of the wine to be at its peak. Now, that's not to say that the wine won't taste good if it's below or above it's temperature range. But, knowing the different temperatures for wine can help you with storing your wine, as well as knowing the right time to open it to have a glass or two. The best way to keep track of your wine's temperature is to get a digital wine thermometer. You can get these at various liquor stores and wine shops. I bought mine from Crate and Barrel for $20, and love it.

You just might surprise yourself with how much better it tastes!
