Come summer, the temptation is to serve white wines and rosés as cold as possible, but the reality is, you won’t get the best out of whatever you’re drinking if you don’t give the temperature at which you serve it a bit of thought.
You wouldn’t be alone, either: most people serve anything other than red wine far too cold simply due to leaving it in the fridge for too long. It will depend on how much food you have stored in it, but the average domestic fridge is between 3C and 5C, which is colder than the recommended temperature for even sparkling wines, so leaving a bottle of wine in it all day is a bad idea. Basically, it dumbs down the flavour.
