| | Varietal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Varietal wines are made primarily from a single variety of grape, and identify this variety on the label. | | | As vintners and consumers have become aware of the characteristics of individual varieties of wine grapes, wines have also come to be identified by varietal names. | | | For example, in Oregon, wines subject to its regulation must be identified by the grape varietal from which it was made, and must contain at least 95% of that varietal. |

| | Grape "variety" or "varietal" - Wine |
| | A wine with a label saying "Syrah" is varietal, even though in the EU it may contain upto 15% other grapes. | | | Jancis Robinson in the Oxford Companion to Wine insists that the word "varietal" is specific to wines, not grapes -- thus, land is planted to the Zinfandel variety that goes into our Zinfandel varietal wine. | | | In that book they use "varietal" for wines and "variety" for grapes.) It's because of the old generic naming that the name "Chianti," for example, retains some unjust stigma in the US. |

| | As a single varietal, Syrah is the basis for the great reds of the Northern Rhone; as an ingredient in blends, it contributes much of the character and aging potential for wines of the Southern Rhone. | | | The varietal is so prolific that it produces more wine than any other grape (even though Grenache and Spain’s Airén may cover a larger vineyard area). | | | Vaccarèse (known in the village of Chusclan as Camarèse) is a minor varietal found primarily in Châteauneuf-du-Pape, where it is considered a relative of Cinsault and produces floral, tannic wines. |

| | Today the Chardonnay grape varietal has become virtually synonymous with "white table wine". | | | Because France was so devoted to geographic labeling at that time, the varietal was unknown except to grape growers and vintners. | | | With the advent of varietal labeling in the late 20th century that changed, however, and Chardonnay quickly became the most widely planted varietal worldwide. |

| | The broad shouldered tannins of this varietal are supple due to year round attention to viticulture — we selectively pruned off almost half of this fruit to guarantee both the fruit flavors and the tannins would be uniform and fully ripe. | | | This is a potent and balanced wine that has the stamina to age gracefully for more then a decade. | | | The power of this wine necessitated aging in a high percentage of new tight-grained French Oak barrels. |
