If you end up with questionable wine as a result of wine aisle roulette, there are ways to salvage the undrinkable. This is especially true for reds. "If you're stuck with mediocre, cheap red wine and there are no other options, chill it," Adams says. "Other than making it totally Summer appropriate, chilling a red will mellow its harsh edges and help eliminate any unsavory things about it (and most people drink their reds too warm anyway)." If the chill isn't doing the trick, you can turn bad wine into a cocktail. "Add some fruit and a splash of juice or sparkling water," Adams says. "You've got yourself a dang sangria or spritzer."
