How should I serve Pinot Grigio?

Question

Do I serve it at room temperature or chilled?

Answer 1

I really hope this helps!!

Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio, white Zinfandel and other refreshing white wines should all be chilled to refrigerator temperature (usually 35 to 40 degrees) for an hour and a half before serving. But the better examples, such as barrel-aged wines like Fume Blanc (made from Sauvignon Blanc grapes) will improve if brought out 20 minutes early or allowed to warm up slightly during hors d’ouevres or dinner.

Answer 2

Most Pinot Grigios are light-bodied and best served chilled, chilled, chilled. Because the grape varietal is not as complex as that of say, a Chardonnay, you won't gain much by allowing it to warm too far. Pinot Grigios are young, sometimes-fruity-sometimes-grassy, sometimes-dull (the poorly made) - mostly sassy. When you serve it, pour a short amount so that it stays cold for every sip. Keep the rest chilled and re-fill as necessary.

Answer 3

Depends upon your tastes, I've known people who serve champagne decanted because they don't like the bubbles.
And as a general rule most North Americans serve their white too cold and their reds too warm. Pop white if the red in the fridge 15 minutes before serving and take white out 15 minutes before serving.

Answer 4

It's a white wine so it's served chilled. Not ice cold, not straight from the fridge, just chilled. Best thing to do is put it in the fridge to keep it cool, then about 5-8 minutes before you're ready to serve it, take it out.

Answer 5

Room temperature because the flavor of the grapes tastes better.

Answer 6

Chilled with a nice cheese and cracker.

Answer 7

chilled

Answer 8
