New Age Red Wine
The most popular way to enjoy New Age is on the rocks with a slice of lime.This refreshing drink is called “Tincho” after the drinks creator. Valentin Eduardo Bianchi, third-generation winery owner was given the nickname “Tincho” as a boy, a term of affection that, loosely translated, means “young Valentin” (as his grandfather was “older Valentin”). It is “Tincho” that first added the lime to the New Age White. “Tincho”, the drink, quickly became one of the most popular, refreshing cocktails served in the restaurants, bars and nightclubs in trend-setting Buenos Aires. The Argentine tradition has caught on here in the United States.
Tasting Notes
An exciting red blend possessing the juicy freshness of just- picked cherries and raspberries on the palate. The aromas of roses and violets round out the nose.
Winemaking
Picked by hand from the Valentin Bianchi Estate vineyards, the grapes are crushed and cooled, followed by 12 hours of cold maceration (to pull the color from the skins) and pressing. Fermentation begins by inoculation with selected yeasts ,half- way through the fermentation process the wine is centrifuged (spun) to halt fermentation, creating a slightly sweet, semi- sparkling wine.
