Grenache is one of the most widely planted red wine grape varieties. It yields a fruity, spicy, medium-bodied wine with supple tannins.
It is generally spicy, berry-flavored and soft on the palate with relatively high alcohol content, but it needs careful control of yields for best results. It tends to lack acid, tannin and color, and is usually blended with other varieties such as Syrah, Carignan and Cinsaut.
Grenache pairs well with hearty meals - steak, burgers and it should normally be drunk quickly, within 5 years or so. Read More...
