[PAR] [TLE] Grignolino [SEP] Grignolino (] ) is a red Italian wine grape variety commonly grown in the Piedmont region.  It makes light colored wines and rosés with very fruity aromas, strong acidity and tannins.  The name Grignolino derives from the word "grignole" which means "many pips" in the local Piedmontese dialect of the Asti region.  The abundance of pips, or seeds, contribute to the strong, bitter tannins associated with the wine.  Modern winemaker try to avoid the excess tannins with gentle and slow pressings.
