I had the pleasure of tasting a Fox Run Lemberger from upstate NY on Sunday, another grape that loves a chill. It reminded me of a drier Catawba, a grape I grew up with in northern Ohio.

I recommend chilling our lighter reds all the time, especially our *%#&@! Rhone blend. It’s incredibly refreshing with some nice BBQ.

During the summer I also recommend cooling down all reds, even the biggest cab. Chances are you are going to serve it too warm at “room temperature”, and if it turns out to be a little too cold, wait a couple minutes. Cheers! – j

J. Lohr Estates Wildflower Valdiguié is proof that red wine can – and sometimes should – be chilled! Thoroughlly recommended!

Recently had a very tasty chilled Alsatian Pinot Noir 2006 at the Killington Wine Festival, from Domain Sipp-Mack…it remained quite open in its earthy fragrance and lively on the palate with some wild strawberry…nice surprise. I tried all of their wines and was seriously impressed…less impressed by the crowds who came to the table looking only for a pinot noir, though…and then making a face when they saw it was chilled.
Oh well, we have a lot to learn.
Cheers.
