What wines try to start drinking wine ?
The holidays offer an ideal starting an affair with wine time. As for every palate there is a gateway, this paper we review 7 of them.
We are in vacation time. Newspapers, magazines and radio talk wine with nonchalance. The reason is simple: this time the wine is like theater and gastronomy, a stimulus for fun. And while among connoisseurs is sesudamente discussed whether it is better this or Malbec or Cabernet Franc is the next variety of the country, a majority of consumers outside this runrún ask: what's so attractive wine? Why is everyone talking about it? How do I start drinking if you do not even know what label to buy?
Like almost everything in life, with wine you start with a point to reach the other. And before getting into passionate conversations about this or terroir or the reality of Franc, it is best to relax and start from scratch. And for that, today we propose a way for every palate.
"My first wine was horrible." It is common that when adolescence is left on roast friends, red makes his first feature appearance in the lives of people. It never is an exceptional wine and yet some remain with wine forever. For others, the experience is traumatic and leave every encounter with the red, clinging to a bad memory. The trick is to try again with a soft wine. A red that it is a mime for the palate and gently erase the memory of that fateful initiatory experience. So they work, for example, a Pinot Noir as Saurus or Salentein Reserve. More accessible, in any case, other varietals such as Norton Temprenillo .
"No thanks. Fizzy drink. " This is perfect. But you can not live in artificial flavors the rest of life. We must grow the palate, not having gone through this world with synthetic feel like only north. So the way to turn a one soda drinker of wine, is clear: we must try a natural fresh white or red. So sugar creates a bridge of empathy, but also introduces new flavors. Perfect examples would Late Harvest Tinto, the new Imago Red Blend or Dadá , three reds in descending order of sweetness, which approach the universe of dry wines.
"I do not understand the labels." True, to buy wines must have a minimum knowledge. Especially of brands and varietals nomenclatures. What you need to know is little, like: the harvest is the year that was developed (younger, more fruity and intense wine), while reserva and gran reserva categories describe important products, with long aging in oak barrels, ensuring at least the presence of wood flavor and some bulk beverage. They are more expensive, too. Moreover, the varieties are a guide only recall acetate. So it is important not to focus on them at the beginning and concentrate on the brand itself that sound us. That will be a first step.
"The red scrape me". In that case, you have to try whites. In addition to the flavor, the main difference between white and red wines is that the former are not astringent and therefore not scrape the palate or throat. In that case, it is best to tempt the taste with a Chardonnay with wood, which are always unctuous and soft. Good examples would be: Graffinga Centenario and Mystery .
"Wine is a snob." Is a half-truth. Spend it more attractive wine are strutting with him, but the reality is far from being so. Wine, like beer or Fernet, well cradled in the heart of Argentine consumers. But of the three, it is the most sophisticated arguments and proposed. Hence it is tempting to approach him and at the same time seems distant and difficult. In any case, there are brands that are far from snobbish and offer rich wines. For example: Fantasy Malbec or Stinger Bee Cabernet Sauvignon , little known wines and are not snobbish.
"Wine is expensive." It is debatable, of course. But to drink rich do not need to spend much money. The proof is that although there is much talk of expensive labels, in our market are consumed accessible. And if compared with the cost of a premium beer, wine is out of pocket. To check, should sign Finca La Escondida Oak Cabernet Sauvignon and Novecento Syrah. With the bonus that accompany most meals and offer a wider than beer taste palette.
"I drink only drinks with fruit." There is thus a consumer who prefers a margarita or a screwdriver to a good glass of wine. It's okay. No objection. But what of those well-liked ethyl drinks is the combination of fruit and alcohol. Something the wine offers naturally. However, when combinations also open doors: one Aperol Sprtiz -espumante dry, Aperol and a slice of orange- or a semi sweet sparkling like Délice or Dulcet - with a few slices cucumber or basil leaves and ice, give the perfect place to have a drink glamor with a healthier and less alcohol drink tone.
