Grenache is a red grape variety that is believed to have originated in Spain, where it is known as Garnacha. Widely grown in other wine regions around the world, including France, Italy, Australia, and the United States, Grenache is used to produce a variety of wine styles, including red, rosé, and fortified wines.
In Spain, Garnacha is often used to produce bold and fruit-forward red wines, while in France, it is a key component in many Rhône Valley blends, which often include Mourvèdre and Syrah, as well as being used to produce rosé wines in the southern regions of Provence and Languedoc-Roussillon. In Italy, Grenache is known as Cannonau and is used to produce powerful red wines in Sardinia.
