Have you heard of Bobal grapes?
Bobal grapes (not boba) are native to the Utiel Requena region in Valencia, Spain.
Wines made with Bobal grapes are known for their deep colour and intense flavours. They often exhibit dark fruit, with moderate tannins. The wines can be medium to full-bodied, with good freshness and a well-balanced acidity.
