What does Grenache Blanc wine taste like?
The Grenache Blanc grape variety is related to Grenache Noir, more simply known as Grenache, but has mutated to have yellow skins instead of red. These grapes create white wines known for their expressive nature. Its wines are usually dry to off-dry with medium acidity levels and can range from light to full-bodied. Typical aromas and flavors include fresh herbs and flowers, citrus, mineral and tree fruits such as green apple and pears. Some winemakers age their Grenache Blanc wines in oak to add richness to the body while adding enticing oaky characteristics like brioche and vanilla. This is an excellent varietal to try if you enjoy rich Pinot Gris wines, Chenin Blanc and Chardonnay (oaked or unoaked styles). You will find diverse styles and popular examples from France, Spain, the United States and South Africa.
Grenache Blanc food pairing
Grenache Blanc stands out for its ability to create various distinct styles. This means there are seemingly endless possibilities for food pairings. You choose the wine style you're most eager to try, then find a dish that complements its unique characteristics or vice versa. Seafood is always an excellent choice, no matter the style. Salty grilled fish or fried calamari will boost the wine's fruit flavors and emphasize its fuller body, especially when these dishes are drizzled with fresh lemon juice. Poultry is a great choice for lighter, brighter styles. Top your turkey or chicken with a cream-based sauce to contrast the wine's acidity. Fuller wine styles pair wonderfully with tender cuts of slow-roasted pork to match the richness in flavor. For a lighter pairing, Grenache Blanc is a fantastic choice to accompany fresh salads, grilled vegetable-based dishes, or soft cheeses.
