Varietals > Red > Mazuelo
Also known as Cariñena, (Carignan in France)
Originally from Aragón, Spain. Though this varietal is one of the most widely planted in the world, in Spain it is not extensively planted because of its easy tendency to powdery-mildew (a fungus that spreads rapidly). For this reason, the world knows it by Carignan and not by its Spanish name.
Mazuelo buds late in the Spring, making it susceptible to frost. It produces high yields, is thick-skinned, rich in color and high in tannins and acidity. |
