The reds are blends, with prominent grape varieties being <\/span>Carignan<\/b> and <\/span>Grenache<\/b>. A whole host of other grapes are permitted, including <\/span>Tempranillo<\/a>, Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Pinot Noir<\/b>. \u00a0<\/span>The resulting wines are deep, rich and full of body and flavour.
