Les Vignes Oubliées in the Terrasses du Larzac, Languedoc

The southern Rhône may be the source of the most illustrious Grenache on the planet, but the variety, of presumed Spanish origin, has made a home for itself in numerous locales all around the Mediterranean basin. Tasting Grenache, Garnatxa, Grannacia, Cannonau, or whatever you choose to call it across many regions, it quickly becomes apparent that this grape is a chameleon whose identity changes in accordance with the local conditions. From Catalonia up the Mediterranean coast of France into the Languedoc, Rhône Valley, and Provence, then sailing south to disembark on the shores of Corsica and Sardinia, Grenache is a vehicle for terroir in the same way that Pinot Noir so sensitively expresses the nuances of Burgundian soil. The three examples here demonstrate how the King of Mediterranean grape varieties so wonderfully excels at the power of transportation.
