Tarrango

Tarrango

:"Tarrango" is also the name of a small settlement in the North West of Victoria. See Tarrango, Victoria.

Tarrango is a variety of red grape used in the manufacture of red wine in Australia.

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.

The wine company "Brown Brothers" produces a popular wine made from the Tarrango grape. It is unusual for a red wine in that it is recommended to be served chilled.
