Grape Variety:  Rare Red Blendis a term Wine-Searcher uses for red wines made from unusual or rarely seen combinations of grape varieties. It also proves convenient for those wines whose blend is unknown or unpublished. Although typically complex, many rare red-wine blends do conform to certain patterns. Many are regional twists on the classic Bordeaux Blend; by adding their local signature grape to a basic Cabernet-Merlot blend, many regions have successfully broadened the appeal of their wines while maintaining a degree of regionality. In Italy, this is done with local specialties such as Sangiovese, Montepulciano and even Trentino's idiosyncratic Lagrein. In Austria it is achieved with Zweigelt or Blaufrankisch, and sometimes both.
