Does it matter what wine is in what color bottle?

[Kracker]

i assume the dark reds need dark bottles to block UV? aside from that guess, i have no idea ?

Normally yes that is true, but mine stay in a box until needed so color has no bearing on me.

To my wife it does! I dare not put a white or blush in anything but a clear bottle and let it leave the house.

Usually I think reds in dark bottles and whites in lighter to clear maybe???

Actually some whites also come with dark and heavy bottles, maybe to justify their price tag
