Is it ever good etiquette to put ice in your wine?
Do you put ice cubes in your white wine? Horrors! That’s not considered proper wine etiquette. However – go right ahead and do it if it’s not a great wine. Lowering the temperature of wine takes a lot of the flavor out. Cheap white wines might be too sweet or acidic and a cube or two can take the edge off.
If you’re serving white wine – it’s best to chill it ahead of time in ice water, not cubes – then ditch the bucket. If you’ve ordered white wine, go ahead and give it a taste BEFORE you add ice and change the flavor completely.
