Serving wine at the right temperature
Wine is a product to be handled with care, especially when it comes to storage and serving temperature.
Indeed, if you want to enjoy it at its true value, taking full advantage of its aromas and flavors, you need to anticipate and serve it at the right temperature. Who hasn't ordered a good bottle of red wine in a restaurant, only to see it arrive on the table cold and covered in condensation?
At what temperature should I drink a wine?
To fully appreciate a wine, it's important to know a few general rules in terms of serving temperatures:
- Opulent, tannic reds: 16 - 18°C
- Fine, elegant reds: 14 - 16 °C
- Light reds, to be drunk young: 12 - 14 °C
- Full-bodied, opulent white: 11 - 14 °C
- Dry white: 9 - 11 °C
- Sweet or syrupy white: 10 - 12 °C
- Rosé: 9 - 12 °C
- Champagne d'apéritif : 7 - 9 °C
- Champagne millésimé : 12 - 14 °C
