It is usually blended with other varieties, rather than made a Varietal wine. In France it is found in many Rhône blends, especially Châteauneuf-du-Pape . It is also frequently used to make lighter, rose wines in France and Spain. Garnacha is the Spanish name. The grape was grown in Spain before it made its way to France, but the popularity of the French wines has ensured that it is now more commonly known by the French name. It is known as '''Garnatxa''' in the Catalan region of Spain. Officially, the Spanish name consists of two varieties: the white Garnacha Blanca (Grenache Blanc) and the more popular red '''Garnacha Tinta''' (Grenache Noir). |
