Based on the information provided, there is no direct link between Lipitor, a cholesterol-lowering drug, and a change in the taste of red wine. Lipitor, also known as atorvastatin, is a medication used to treat high cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke [1].

However, it is worth noting that some medications can affect taste perception as a side effect. According to the US National Library of Medicine, changes in taste or smell can occur with the use of statins, the class of drugs that Lipitor belongs to [2]. However, this side effect is not specific to red wine and can affect the taste of other foods and beverages as well.

Therefore, while it is possible that Lipitor use could potentially change a person's perception of red wine's taste, it is not a direct or specific effect of the drug. If a person experiences changes in taste while taking Lipitor, they should consult with their healthcare provider to determine the cause and appropriate course of action.
