The earthy, herbaceous qualities of a blanco add subtle bite to refreshing poolside drink; the barrel influence on an aged reposado or añejo makes for perfect riffs on traditional bourbon builds.

Drinkers over 40 are still proving to be the bread and butter of established wine-producing regions like Napa and Bordeaux.
