It seems like a simple question. But grenache is one grape varietal that can turn into a zillion different wines. What if it’s from the Rhône Valley, blended with syrah? What if it’s a Spanish wine with a label calling it “garnacha”? And what about cannonau? That’s the name grenache goes by in Sardinia…
In short, one grape can be expressed countless different ways, depending where it’s grown, how it’s picked, and who’s turning it into wine.
Which is why Eater Wine Club’s May box is 100% grenache, so you can taste four different wines (two reds, a white, and a rosé) for four different takes on this popular grape. Think of it as the most sophisticated drinking game you’ve played in years.
