Bobal
A black variety, originally from Spain

Summary

Due to its natural acidity, color and fruity nature, this grape has often been used as a blending partner in both red and rosé wines. It is an uneven ripener but, when that is managed, and yields are constrained, it can also make very good single varietal wines.
