"   If you&amp;#039;re like us, you keep your boxed wine on your nightstand so there&amp;#039;s easy access at all times.  Just kidding\u2026 (kinda). However, we&amp;#039;re going to have to find a new place for our favorite drink. It turns out that keeping our delicious boxes of Chardonnay at room temperature gives it a funky taste after just a short period of time. Scientists enlisted a test panel to rate wine in three different packages\u2014natural and synthetic cork, screw caps, and bag-in-box\u2014for freshness. The wines all aged faster when kept at room temps (between 68 and 104 degrees), but boxed wine tasted the worst in a shorter period of time. Are we doomed to drink skunky wine just so we can save a few bucks? Nope! Just keep it in the fridge at 50 degrees\u2014like we&amp;#039;re sure Katie Holmes already does\u2014and all will be right with the world. Want more from Meagan? Follow her on Twitter.
