Most wine lovers agree that storing temperatures and serving temperatures are two different things. So, despite that reds and whites are typically served at different temperatures, the ideal storage temperature for both is about 55 degrees F, which will help keep your wines from the risk of aging prematurely.
It is true that they should be served warmer than white and sparkling wines, but they are generally best served slightly cooler than room temperature; 50 F is ideal. If red wine is kept in a cellar, it is fine to serve it directly from there; otherwise, chill it in the refrigerator for 20 minutes before serving.
