Grenache: this grape is often used to produce rose wines.
When the grapes are gathered at a late harvest, they can be used to make sweet dessert wines.
Grenache grapes are grown in France, Spain and California.

Grenache wines with a high alcohol content can perk up lower-alcohol, thinner wines.
Grenache wine styles can vary from light-bodied, delicious, fruity rosés to rich, red, table wines, to full dessert and fortified wines.
Another winemaking option for the home winemaker is to make a Port-type wine with the Grenache grape variety.

 For The Love Of Grenache March 2004
Grenache and Cinsault are the local grapes, joined more recently by Syrah from the Northern Rhône and Mourvèdre from the Mediterranean coast.
The bulk of the Saurels’ estate is in Vacqueyras, where the wines are blends of Grenache and Syrah.
Gigondas wines are dominated by Grenache, and have the same power and dark fruit as the Châteauneufs, but the tannins are softer and more open, and the wines are more perfumed.

 Stags' Leap Winery — "Not a Newsletter"
Our Petite Syrah, which is predominantly varietal, is enhanced with about 15 percent syrah, three percent carignane and one percent grenache for complexity, and softened with about two percent viognier, a white Rhône varietal.
Throughout those years, interrupted only by Prohibition, petite sirah enjoyed enormous success in California, primarily as a mainstay component of the popular "Burgundy" red wine blends made by top wine houses such as Inglenook and Beaulieu in the Napa Valley, and Concannon in the Livermore Valley.
In nearby Calistoga, Greg Brown, the owner/winemaker at T-Vine Cellars, concurs: "I sell more of my Petite Sirah to my direct consumer list than my Zins and Grenache.

 2000 Grenache
Usually blended with other Rhone varieties in France, the generous upfront fruit character and complex layering of flavors earns the varietal its own bottling when grown in Santa Barbara County.
To make a wine of this caliber, we insist on completely ripe, balanced fruit, which can be somewhat nerve racking since it ripens late in the season when winter rains threaten.
We produce an uncharacteristically, well concentrated, rich, ruby red Grenache that is quickly becoming one of our most popular varieties.

 Santa Barbara.com - Wineries: Arthur Earl
We found three of the six wines sampled that day to be excellent - the Grenache (at $18/bottle a good deal) and the Nebbiolo, which was very 'drinkable' and the Mourvedre, which was a very solid, well balanced wine.

About half of this total is Cinsault (known as Hermitage locally), which makes an ideal blending wine.
Then follow Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinotage and Shiraz with minute plantings of Pinot Noir, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Malbec, Gamay and Grenache.
The oddly titled Pinotage is a variety peculiar to the Cape, originating in 1925 from a cross of Cinsault and Pinot Noir.

Older vines can yield varietals often as a rosé.
