Temperature
Temperature can have a significant influence on the quality and taste of your wine. White and blush should be served at 55 to 60 degrees Fahrenheit, red at 62 to 67, and champagne at a crisp 45 degrees Fahrenheit.
Serving a variety of wines?
Always serve light before heavy, white before red, and simple wines before those with a more complex character.
Do you experience headaches with wine?
Sulfites are found naturally in most wines and are often added by vineyards as a preservative, as well. While some of us do suffer reactions to sulfites, more often than not, histamine or other chemicals in the wine are to blame. Organic wines generally have fewer sulfites added and less histamine, so many people who would otherwise suffer can enjoy sipping, symptom-free.
