I agree with TorxBit. I like my reds (merlot and cabernet) with a slight chill. Not refrigerator cold, but about 50-60 F.

I serve it at room temp (about 72F) but really you are supposed to serve it at cellar temp (about 55F)

Reds are fine room temperature.

TorxBit is correct. Most people serve wines at 21-22 C (70-72 F), but the "best " temperature is closer to 16 C.
