Chef Raphael’s Wine Tips: The White Wine Mistake 🥂

Are you serving your white wine straight out of a freezing fridge? If so, you might be missing out on all the flavor!
While we love a refreshing, cold drink, over-chilling white wine completely numbs its aromas and complex flavors. If it's too cold, all you will taste is acidity.

The Chef’s Trick: Take your white wine out of the fridge about 15–20 minutes before you plan to pour it. As it warms up just a fraction, you’ll suddenly start smelling the beautiful tropical fruits, crisp apple, or floral notes that were locked away by the cold.

Trust me, your palate will thank you.
