Questions about Red table wine

Should you serve red table wine at room temperature?

Not necessarily: a cool room temperature is better than a warm one. Serve lighter reds at about 12–14 °C and fuller-bodied reds at about 16–18 °C; a short spell in the fridge can bring an overheated bottle down.

How long does opened red table wine keep?

Re-cork it and keep it in the fridge, even if you plan to drink it at room temperature. It usually stays pleasant for about 3–5 days; let it warm slightly before serving.

What food goes well with red table wine?

Its acidity and tannins often suit roast meats, tomato-based pasta, hard cheeses and dishes with mushrooms or lentils. A very tannic red can taste harsh with chilli or delicate fish.

Does red table wine need decanting?

Most everyday reds can be poured straight from the bottle. Decant a young, tannic red for about 30 minutes if you want it to soften, and pour older wine gently if it has sediment.

Can you use red table wine for cooking?

Yes: add it to a pan after browning meat or vegetables, then simmer to loosen the browned bits and reduce the liquid. It works well in beef stew, coq au vin and tomato or mushroom sauces; cooking does not necessarily remove all the alcohol.

What can you use instead of red table wine in a recipe?

For a sauce or stew, use unsalted stock with a small splash of red wine vinegar or lemon juice for acidity. For a recipe where wine is the main liquid, alcohol-free red wine is a closer substitute.

How is red table wine made?

Red table wine is made by fermenting dark grapes with their skins, which give the wine its colour and tannins. The skins are usually removed after fermentation, then the wine is clarified and bottled.
