Question: is cabernet sauvignon supposed to be refrigerated?
Answer: Place it in the refrigerator for 90 minutes. Fuller-bodied, tannic wines like Bordeaux and Napa Cabernet Sauvignon taste better warmer, so keep them to 45 minutes in the fridge. Red wine that's too cold tastes dull, but when too warm, it's flabby and alcoholic. Like Goldilocks, somewhere in between is just right.
