    Beyond the usual suspects, there are hundreds of red grape varieties grown throughout the world. Some are indigenous specialties capable of producing excellent single varietal wines, while others are better suited for use as blending grapes. Each has its own distinct viticultural characteristics, as well as aroma and flavor profiles, offering much to be discovered by the curious wine lover. In particular, Portugal and Italy are known for having a multitude of unique varieties but they can really be found in any region.

    Languedoc, France

    Established in 1948, Fitou is the oldest AOC in the Languedoc; appropriately enough, Greek colonists planted the first vines in France here in the fifth century BCE. Celebrated by Rabelais and served at Louis XIV’s table, Fitou wines have long been prized for their meaty, full-bodied character, their friendliness with food and their aging capacity. As with all quality Languedoc wines, they give great value for money.

    This red-wine region is divided into two parts: one on the warmer plains near the sea, the other in the limestone, clay and schist hillsides of the Corbières massif. Heat-loving Carignan provides a briary backbone to Fitou wines, while Grenache adds berry fruit and softens its tannins. Together these grapes must make up 60% of any blend, which are filled out with plummy Mourvèdre along the seaside and brighter Syrah in the hills. In both seacoast and hillside vineyards, the garrigue blends savory herbal character into the wines, which can ripen over the course of years into complex, truly spectacular bottles.
