Grenache is a variety of grape fruit, commonly used in the production of red wines. It originated in Spain but is now grown in many wine regions around the world, including France, Australia, and the United States. The fruit itself is generally small and round, with a thin skin and a high sugar content, making it ideal for winemaking. Grenache grapes typically produce wines that are medium to full-bodied, with a range of flavors including red fruit, spice, and a hint of earthiness. Due to its versatility, grenache is often used in blends with other grape varieties, as well as being featured in varietal wines.
