I should be serving my wines at ‘room temperature’, correct?

This is an idea that I have heard many times: “I should serve my wine at room temperature’ – even in Malaysia.Room temperature should be based on the country where the wine is made, not over here.Wine cellar in Europe in Winter can go down to 10 ˚C or below, and if you want to enjoy your wine to the fullest, you bring it in the living room earlier to bring it up to ‘room temperature’ – but it shouldn’t be kept at that level, especially for the long term.Here in Malaysia, it is recommended to have a wine chiller to properly keep your wines – for long or mid-term).You can check our wine chillers selection here.

 

See below the recommended temperature to serve your wines for optimal enjoyment:
