Should pinot noir be served at room temperature?

Here's why:

* Room temperature is too warm: Room temperature in most homes is around 70-75 degrees Fahrenheit. At this temperature, Pinot Noir will become overly fruity, lose its delicate aromas, and might even taste flabby.

* Ideal serving temperature: Pinot Noir is best served chilled, at around 55-65 degrees Fahrenheit (13-18 degrees Celsius). This allows its flavors to develop and helps to showcase its refreshing acidity.

Here are some ways to chill Pinot Noir:

* Refrigerator: Chill for about 30-60 minutes before serving.

* Ice bucket: Fill a bucket with ice water and let the bottle chill for 15-20 minutes.

* Wine cooler: Use a wine cooler specifically designed for chilling wine.

By serving Pinot Noir at the proper temperature, you can fully appreciate its complexity and elegance.
