		Popular in Spain (called Garnacha), Australia and the southern Rhone region of France, Grenache is the primary grape in regions such as Chateauneuf-du-Pape, Tavel, and Priorat.
		Intensive pruning on older vines give Grenache enough structure to maintain its balance as a sole varietal, which is popular, and successful, in California, Australia and sometimes Spain, but many vintners rely on blending to keep this alcohol-happy grape in check.
		Typical flavors of Grenache are spice, flberries, earthiness and some pepper, depending on where it’s grown.

	Wine: Mourvèdre emerges: Spain, Provence, the U.S. and Australia give the grape a leading role, on Starchefs
		Grenache has already begun taking on a leading role, largely because of Spanish success with the grape (there called Garnacha) in places like Priorat.
		While it dominates the best, south-facing slopes of the region, Grenache and Cinsault are often planted in the lesser sites, and the former in particular has a fruitiness that Mourvèdre can lack and which producers find useful in balancing their wines.
		Like Grenache, Mourvèdre also has Spanish connections – in fact, experts believe Spain is its native territory, and that it only came to France around the end of the Middle Ages.

	The Food Maven - Arthur Schwartz
		Cannonau di Sardegna (pronounced Can-no-now di Sar-dain-ya) is the Grenache grape in Sardinia, or, I should say, the Grenache wine in Sardinia.
		I know Grenache mainly from California, where it produces light, fruity wines with distinctive strawberry and raspberry notes.
		From Sardinia, at least judging by this wine from the highly regarded producer Sella & Mosca, the Grenache grape makes a lusher and bolder wine, but also a wine that I think should be drunk when it is relatively young and still fresh.
