Banyuls Grand Cru AOC

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Banyuls Grand Cru is an Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée for wines made in the Roussillon wine region of France, for superior wines that would otherwise be classified as Banyuls AOC.

Wines must be matured for 30 months.

Most wines are red, although some white wines are produced. Permitted grape varieties are Grenache Noir (at least 75%), Grenache Gris, Grenache Blanc and Carignan, also (but rarely used) Macabeu, Muscat and Malvoisie.
