And some people eat their filet mignon well - done. Taste is one thing, but the correct way for a bar to offer drinks is another. If my only choice in a restaurant was filet mignon served well-done I'd complain about that too.
I guess you can cook all of the flavor out of a steak, or heat all of the taste out of a glass of wine. Enjoyment is in the palet of the holder of the glass or fork.
IMO it depends on the red wine ! in a box OK let's refridgerate might help. $150 bottle of bordeaux should never be too hot or too cold. If it was sitting a while in the tropic heat while shipped I don't think the refridge could hurt or help! Also wouldn't trust an opened bottle of red wine in tropic heat more than one day! Belize it!
