Mazuelo
The Mazuelo, also called Samso, Cariñena or Carignan, is a particularly red grape variety. This grape variety comes out very late. The result of this is, on the one hand, that the grape is hardly damaged by the frost, but on the other hand, that this grape can often only be harvested late in the autumn.

This grape variety is often mixed with other grape varieties in winemaking. These wines are generally rich in tannins, due to the mazuelo grape. In addition, these wines usually have quite a high acidity and are particularly aromatic.
