anywurld asked:
I recently ordered a glass of domestic red wine in a restaurant. The wine had a wonderful boquet, one of the best I have ever experienced. Upon preparing to leave the bar, the bar manager inquired as to my opinion of the wine. I told her that it was an exceptional wine, but that it could have been cooler. To this she remarked at my perceived ignorance ” these wines are never chilled, they are served at room temp” This really irritated me, I can see 58 or so degrees but this was on the warm side. Thanks
