I heard a guy talking about wine on NPR today. He was saying that most red wine is best served below room temperature - 50 - 60 degrees. He said the taste at the different temperatures is remarkably different.
He said a fun test is to chill a bottle of red in the fridge for about an hour. This will bring it down to about 50 degrees. Then pour the first glass and let the wine warm back up to room temperature. From what he was saying, you'll notice the difference in taste between glasses.
