Fun fact: "chambrer le vin" i.e getting (usually red) wine from storage temperature to "room temperature" comes from a time where said room temperature was well below 20 degC (more like 13-15 degC), not the comfortable 20+ degC that people like to enjoy these days.
- BrandoElFollito 7mo agoThanks for the reminder about our traditions. Now, I like to drink it straight from the fridge, i.e. about 6°C :)
- lloeki 7mo agoHeh, whatever works. A sommelier friend of mine says that the best way to taste wine is the one you enjoy; if you want to have a glass of chilled powerful Haut-Médoc with some delicate fish, have at it.
