Red wine can be stored, adequately, just a bit below room temperature. However, its taste is best preserved if it is stored in a cool place (55 degrees).

White wine should be stored at even cooler temperatures than red wine (45 degrees).

Does it hurt white wine that was stored at room temp then chilled on ice but never opened to be returned to storing at room temp again?

While storing white wine at room temperature is not ideal, chilling it on ice after having been stored at room temperature should not significantly harm the wine, especially if it was never opened. However, repeated temperature fluctuations can potentially affect the wine’s quality over time. It's best to keep white wine consistently stored at cooler temperatures for optimal flavor and longevity. If it was only chilled once, it should be fine to return it to room temperature for a period.

What is the difference between ambient food and chilled food?

Ambient foods are those that are stored at ROOM TEMPERATURE such as tinned foods, tinned meats etc. These would normally in their unprocessed state require refrigeration i.e. A ham which is raw will require chilled storage but once cooked and processed it can stay in a tin in normal temperature. Milk is a classic example where fresh milk requires chilled storage yet processed milk (long like) has the ability to be stored in room temperature. Chilled foods are those that re normally refrigerated between the temperatures of 1 degree to 7 degrees. These may not have been processed to allow for normal room storage i.e. packet hams, yogurts etc. There are some in this class that are not effected by temperature but which are stored in either ambient or chilled these are things like white wine, soda drinks etc. These are ambient but are described as "best served chilled". Chilled food are normally whose shelf life is effected by temperature i.e. fresh meats, fish dairy products that go off when subjected to room temperatures.

Yes, mayonnaise should be stored in a cool room, typically in the refrigerator, to maintain its quality and safety. The cool temperature helps prevent the growth of bacteria, particularly after the jar has been opened.
