Caíño is a red wine grape varietal native to Spain, specifically the Galicia region. It is used predominantly in the Rias Baixas and often blended with other varietals such as Albarino and Loureira. The Caíño grape produces wine that is high in acidity and often high in alcohol content. It is known for its deep, ruby red color and its flavors can range from berry fruits like raspberry and blackberry to more herbal and peppery notes. Despite its potential for producing complex and interesting wines, it is a difficult grape to cultivate, which has contributed to its relative obscurity.
