Grenache is a dark-skinned grape variety widely cultivated across the Mediterranean region, particularly in Spain where it originated. Known for producing wines with moderate to high alcohol content and soft tannins, it has become a cornerstone of many Old World and New World wine regions.
Flavors & Aromas
Red berries, cherry, strawberry, white pepper, garrigue, and dried herbs with hints of licorice and spice
Winemaking & Aging
Medium to full-bodied wines with soft, velvety tannins and good acidity. Grenache ages well in oak and can develop complexity over 5-15 years. Often blended with Syrah and Mourvèdre to add structure and depth. Thrives in warm, dry climates and produces best results from older, lower-yielding vines.
