This slow-ripening grape was created in 1965 by the CSIRO Horticultural Research Station at Merbein in Victoria, Australia, as a hybrid of Touriga Nacional and Sultana in order to create wines of good acidity, but low in tannin. Its wines are reasonably-priced and often similar to Beaujolais in style.
Requiring an unusually warm climate, it is principally grown in the wine-producing areas of northern Victoria.
Tarrango is one of Brown BrothersÂ’ largest selling varietals in Australia and the U.K. Brown Brothers is the sole producer of Tarrango in the U.S. Production Area
Tarrango is a unique Australian grape variety, named after the tiny township of Tarrango in the northwest of Victoria, where it was designed to thrive.
Served lightly chilled, Tarrango is an ideal aperitif and a versatile match for diverse dishes and menus, ranging from Asian, Mexican and Italian cooking, to backyard barbecue, pizza and your favorite recipe for MomÂ’s homemade meatloaf.
