Comments	Garnacha blanca (Grenache blanc) is the white mutation of Garnacha tinta (Grenache noir) and has identical foliage. It is thought to be native to the Barcelona and Tarragona region of Spain. The primary name for this variety in Europe is Garnacha blanca because of the Spanish origin. The variety is known in France as Grenache blanc. The TTB has approved both names for use on wine labels in the United States.
