Enjoyed reading your article. I didn’t realize that Wine making in Peru started that long ago. What time frame distinguishes old world from new world wines?

Perhaps wine is better described as sensual. Like a tango move of two people perfectly in sync. Sorry I missed your interview on the 16th. Hope it went well!

Usually the Old World and New World designations are not demarcated by time; they are demarcated by place.

BUT, you could consider them based on time because grapevines were first brought to the New World from Europe starting in the mid 1500s (to South America and Mexico), followed by to the U.S. and to South Africa by the early 1600s.
