Grenache
The Grenache grape is widely present in southern France, where it came from neighboring Spain. It is a very common variety in the Mediterranean area and one of the most widespread in the world. In France, it expresses itself particularly well in the lower Rhône area, in particular in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, where with small additions of mourvedre, syrah, cinsault and other local grapes, it gives reds of extreme finesse and class, especially if grown on the typical soils by galets roulés. Other interesting Grenache-based wines are those produced in the nearby Gigondas and Vaqueyras appellations. Vinified in purity it expresses rather alcoholic wines, with aromas of red fruit, dense tannins and balanced freshness.
