OK, OK..... I am guilty!

I committed THE cardinal sin on Thursday night.

A friend brought around a bottle of red wine and I stuck it in the fridge not realising that it was not white - too busy grabbing a bottle of chilled wine for us to get stuck into

Anway as I don't liked red wine, I don't know anything about it!

I have taken it out of the fridge and it is now being kept at room temperature - as I know it should. Is it still OK to drink once it has been chilled then back at room temp again?

I want to give it back to the person who brought it round but don't want to poison her in the process

Any advice would be cool, thanks.

According to a wine book of my dads is okay to chill red wine............

Not sure what the situation would be with it now though.......... sorry, but you'll know for future

I'm not ponsey about wine so it wouldn't bother me. I've had chilled red wine before. Had Sangria the other week.
I suppose the main point is if it's a very good (expensive) wine that you want to savour, or a bottle of plonk to get tipsy off of.

Wine doesn't keep if you expose it to different temperatures on a regular basis, but yours will be fine !

Some red wines are excellent lightly chilled on hot days (if we ever get any ) examples being Beaujolais & Grenache-Shiraz.
