I'm not sure about 'new' wine. If you mean freshly made wine then I don't think there is a lot of difference colour-wise than if it has aged for a while.
However here's some info on wine colours:
Obviously, white wine comes from white grapes and red wine from red, but if you press red grapes gently, you get white juice. Some of the most famous Champagne -- considered a white wine -- is made from red grapes and always has been.
The big difference between white and red is that after pressing out the juice, red wine is fermented with its grape skins, and white wine is not. All manner of tannins, pigments, and other compounds are extracted from the skin contact. This is what makes red wine a "bigger" glass of wine than white. There's literally more stuff in the juice.
If you press red grapes normally, you get pink juice. If you just ferment this juice and don't add the skins back in, you get pink wine: around the world, it's called rosato, rosado, rose, gray, gris, pink, and even white, as in white zinfandel.

Here’s a quick look at the general types of wines:
1. Sparkling wine
This is more popularly known as champagne. Sparkling wine takes the form of a bubbly clear liquid which is most often used to signify a celebration.
They are further divided into different types. There is a type of sparkling wine which is very dry and they are light and a bit sweet when tasted. There are champagnes made from white or red grapes, and they are more popularly known as Blanc de Blancs.
2. Aperitif
These are wines drank as an appetizer before the actual meal. Vermouth and dry sherry are a couple of examples of an aperitif.
3. Red wines
Red dinner wines are best served with red meat dishes or pasta. Cabernet Sauvignon is a popular red wine brand.
4. Rose dinner wine
This is related to the red wine variety and is also known as “blush wine” or pink wine. It has a lighter color and a sweeter flavor than the regular red wine.
5. White wine
White wine best complements fish or chicken meal. It brings out the natural aroma of food and further enhances flavor when served chilled. Chablis and Chardonnay are examples of white wines.

Depends if it is white or red...hint hint hint. Rose is pink. The grape defines the color, of new wines and old, but the aging provides the finished color/levels/etc...
