Red grape 🇪🇸 Aragón, Spain

Grenache

/ gruh-NASH / · Also known as Garnacha, Cannonau, Garnatxa

Sun-soaked strawberries and spice — warm, juicy and generous.

Grenache thrives in hot, dry, windy places and ripens to high sugar levels, giving warm, fruity wines with soft tannins. It stars in Châteauneuf-du-Pape and Priorat, makes much of the world's best rosé, and old bush vines in Spain and Australia produce wines of real intensity.
