Yes, I thought so. But you are now the only one who's answered a question correctly and it is therefore
YOUR TURN!

No.

It's a variety fairly specific, but not exclusive, to a particular region (I'm guessing you know which country we're talking about)

Neither Jaen nor Alfrocheiro

Here's another clue...

You might well take an anagram of this onto an aeroplane, but you certainly would not take the anagram into an E.Leclerc supermarket in Portugal

I'm never going to guess an anagram of a thing that one wouldn't take into a Portuguese supermarket! But I can keep guessing Portuguese grapes till the cows come home.
Perhaps it's Argones, which in the Douro is Tinta Roriz and in Spain is Tempranillo?
