Wine Chilling:

In India, drink is taken with ice cubes. So when it comes to wine, adding ice spoils everything. With limited knowledge on wine chilling, Wine tastes good in hill stations like Ooty or Kodai when it gets naturally chilled, but never perfectly to the desired temperature.

Typically 
  • White wine like Chenin Blancs, Rieslings, Sauvignon Blancs and regular Chardonnays are to be served at 7°C. Anything cooler, and the aromas and flavours are diluted.
  • It’s 10°C for the fuller bodied whites like the Sauternes and light reds (Beaujolais).
  • Reds are supposed to be served at room temperature? By “room” here actually means wine cellar temperature (generally 13°C to 14°C). So that’s the temperature you need for your Bordeaux, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Shiraz or Zinfandel.

To get such precision for the palate, what you need is wine chillers like:
Kalorik Wine Cooler.
  • Plonk your wine into this cooler; set the temperature on the built-in, backlit LCD screen and thermo-electrics does the rest. 
  • It has two wireless temperature probes that are designed to insert into uncorked wine bottles in order to send accurate temperature readings of the wine itself to LCDs on the chiller. 
  • And both chambers can be set to different temperatures.
