What is the best red wine to be served chilled?

Dr. says I should drink a few ounces of red wine every day to increase HDL and I'm not really a fan of room temperature wine.|||The only reason for chilling a red wine is if it is undrinkable at room temperature.





White wines should be served chilled, at about 40 degrees (F). Red wines should be served no cooler than 60 degrees (F) and not warmer than about 75 degrees (F). The only real exception to this is if you are making sangria (over ice), which your doctor might not approve of, or mulled wine (heated).





Try a cabernet savignon/merlot blend or perhaps a shiraz/merlot blend.|||Probably a young Rioja, crianza of 2002 or 2003, you can answer my question too.

Can red wine cause heart palpitations?

I find that after I drink red wine the next day I get kind of like heart palpitations, yet if I drink wine later in the day it goes away. Any thoughts? Oh and I am seeing my doctor on Teusday.|||Some red wines are artificially aged and preserved with sulphites. Some people have a real sensitivity to the sulphites and reactions can range from migraine like headaches, fast heart beats, sweating and throat tightness to dizziness.





Ask for sulphite free red wine to see if there is a difference.|||Yes. My brother in law ended up in the hospital for 3 days with a heart arrhythmia after overdoing it on red wine. Now he pretty much just drinks beer and when he has wine it's only a couple glasses when he has dinner.





Of course, I think he was predisposed to the condition, but the wine (really any alcohol, probably) definite contributed to the problem.|||I have heard that a glass of red wine a day is good or your heart. Hhhmmm. Be honest with your DR about how much you are drinking.|||i heard red wine was good for the heart.

Whats a really good red wine?

I'm going to dinner at a very nice resturaunt and I enjoy white wine but would like to to have red wine but I've not tried many of them because I find them too dry and not sweet enough. Could someone recommend something?|||Pinot Noir is perfect for those who prefer white wine. It is light, smooth, and slightly sweet not biter or dry. It has become very popular lately so you should have no problem finding it by the glass on a wine list in nice restaurants.|||Burgundy definitely|||Depending on the restaurant as to the wines offered. Many carry a few of reds and whites, while larger restaurants offer a long list. Since wines vary, you would need to ask for a sweet red and a good waiter should recommend one. Cost isn't always a sign of the best either. Some cheaper wines are great dinner wines with good taste, and really compliment the meal.|||I'm not a wine expert, but enjoy pretty much drinking different kinds of red wine from time to time. Usually I drink Argentinian red wine, and my favorite types are Cabernet Sauvignon, and the Cabernet Sauvignon, Malbec, Merlot blend. A couple of weeks ago I tried a Pink (Rosado) that was very good too.


But for me, good wines are the ones I like and the best one is the one I like the most. The taste for wine is not an exact science.


I hope you find this answer useful, in any way. Ciao.|||Rioja, cune ,Yllera ,proton|||If you can get a good Merlot, they're usually not too dry but really sweet. Or even a Cabernet would be good for you. I think Pinot Noir might be too bitter for you if you generally don't like red wines.

How can I get rid of red wine stains on my lips?

Hello





I enjoy a glass of red but it stains my lips. This is a bit embarrasing as it lasts til the next day. It's hard to get off. I've tried rubbing and brushing. People must think I'm a wine taster.

You can also try applying hydrogen peroxide to your lips to lift the stain a little.|||drink white instead|||try sipping it with the internal part of your lips, my guess is your not tasting it but drinking it, after all wine is for sipping and not downing it as fast as you can, no disrespect but if you try to sip it rather than gulp it down then it wont spill over your outer lips and therefor your lips wont get stained.|||Try some lip gloss before u drink the wine|||dont drink it lol|||lay off the cheap stuff. ;)|||try femfresh, it might not be red wine.|||kissing will do the trick|||put white powder on the rest of your face, a round red ball on your nose.

Can I restore a bottle of red wine that spoiled due to heat exposure?

I have heard if you chill a bottle of red wine its original characteristics will be restored.|||Sorry, no. You can not restore a bottle of red wine, once it is spoiled. The only thing you can do is leave it open (maybe cover it with apiece of cloth or paper) and wait until it turns to vinegar. It will probably be very good vinegar, in fact.|||It's not true, it turns to vinegar.





I have had many spoil in the fridge, so if your method worked they would not have spoiled.
