Carignan Wines

Carignan is a red grape variety commonly grown in southern France, Spain, and parts of the New World. It produces robust, full-bodied wines with high acidity and tannins, along with flavors of dark fruit, spice, and earth. The ABV for Carignan wines typically ranges from 12.5-14.5%. Its popularity is due to its ability to produce both high-yielding, everyday wines and more concentrated, old-vine expressions.

The Mediterranean climate and varied soils of regions like Languedoc-Roussillon and Priorat provide ideal conditions for Carignan, allowing the grape to develop its characteristic structure and intensity. Carignan's versatility in blending and its potential for producing complex, age-worthy wines from older vines make it a favorite among winemakers. Its resilience and adaptability further contribute to its widespread cultivation and enduring appeal in the wine world.
