Wines made from Grenache noir grapes of Provence
Discover the best wines made with Grenache noir as a single variety or as a blend of Provence.
Supple, sunny reds with a light robe and generous alcohol, with aromas of candied red fruits (strawberry, raspberry, cherry), garrigue, gentle spices, white pepper and kirsch notes. Ripe tannins and a warm palate. Pillar of GSM blends in the southern Rhône (Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Gigondas, Vacqueyras), star of Tavel rosé, Priorat and Aragonese Garnacha. Also in natural sweet wines (Banyuls, Maury, Rasteau). Historic Mediterranean variety from Aragon.
World capital of dry, refined rosé (~90% of production). Pale rose-petal colour, delicate nose of fresh red fruits (strawberry, raspberry, redcurrant), citrus (pink grapefruit), white flowers and a mineral touch, taut and thirst-quenching palate — the Mediterranean aperitif par excellence. Blends of Grenache, Cinsault, Syrah, Tibouren and Mourvèdre. Fleshy Bandol reds from Mourvèdre (leather, garrigue, age-worthy), straight Cassis whites.
