Banyuls Grand Cru AOC
Banyuls Grand Cru is an Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée for wines made in the Roussillon (Northern Catalonia) wine region of France, for superior wines that would otherwise be classified as Banyuls AOC.

Most wines are red, although some white wines are produced. Permitted grape varieties are Grenache Noir (at least 75%), Grenache Gris, Grenache Blanc and Carignan, also (but rarely used) Macabeu, Muscat and Malvoisie.
