Grenache

Grenache – Sun-ripened warmth and soft fruit in the glass

Grenache – or Garnacha as it is called in Spain – is one of the world’s most widely grown red wine grapes. Known for its soft structure, warm fruit and spicy undertones, it is loved by wine lovers and sommeliers alike. At dhwines.dk we have collected a selection of Grenache wines from France, Spain and overseas – each with its own distinctive character, but with the characteristic Grenache warmth.

What does Grenache taste like?

Grenache wines are typically:

• Fruity and warm – with flavors of strawberries, cherries, blackcurrants and raspberries
• Soft and round – with low tannin levels and pleasant structure
• Spicy and slightly herbaceous – with notes of licorice, white pepper and southern French herbs
• Often moderate in acidity and easy to drink, but still complex

Grenache from different regions

• France (Rhône & Languedoc): An important part of Côtes du Rhône , Châteauneuf-du-Pape and many blends. Elegant and spicy.
• Spain (Navarra, Aragon, Priorat): Like “Garnacha” more powerful and concentrated. Also in many value-for-money wines.
• Australia & California: Fruit-driven, sun-ripened and often higher in alcohol – but still easy to drink.

Grenache for food

Grenache is an all-round wine for food , especially when you want something light and flavorful. Try it with:

• Grilled chicken, pork or sausages
• Mediterranean dishes with herbs, tomato and olives
• Vegetarian dishes with peppers, mushrooms and eggplant
• Soft cheeses like brie, taleggio, and mild goat cheese
