The Bottom-Barrel Basics for Drinking a Glass of Wine

(Gizmodo) - I have a confession to make: I've only just recently begun to understand and appreciate wine in terms more nuanced than white or red. What helps is knowing how best to drink a given varietal, and why.
First of all, stop putting ice cubes in your white wine. You're not on The Real Housewives of Orange County and you're effing ruining it. To that end, red wine shouldn't be served warm, like it's been sitting in your pantry for days. Unless you're drinking it just to get wasted, in which case whatever, you're best off serving red at anywhere between 55-65 degrees.
