"hello my name is mihaly fabok, and we are here on behalf of expert village and we are talking about white wines, how to serve and how to enjoy. the white wine should be served cold, it means the life of it fresh, the white wine should be served around 8-10 celcius degree, if tthe white wine is full bodied, oaked, or matured you have to serve around 12 celcius degree. the red wine has different serving temperatures, like a light bodied fruity fresh red wine the serving temperature is around 50 celcius degree, if you have a full bodied red wine which is old, typically you have to serve it around 19 celcius degree. it is very important around especially summertime and also in the winter time you have to chill the red wine as well, because the room temp is about 21-22, 23 is absolutely too high to enjoy the red wine, so we have to keep it around 15-19 celcius degree. this is important because the room temp is too high. if you don't put the red wine in the fridge, it will be 22 sometime in the summer 24, or 26 and this absolutely wrong. you have to keep it around 15-19 celcius degree this is the best temp to serve any red wines.
