To chill or not to chill

[Yoshi2all]

The age old idea that reds should be at room temp is wrong -- they need to be slightly below room temp, thus why they are normally stored in a cellar as apposed to the kitchen. You can usually get the desired temp by placing the bottle in a little ice for a minute or so -- you might even want to keep the ice just in case your a slow drinker and the wine warms up (especially on hot days).
