Cayetana Blanca is a white grape variety primarily grown in the wine regions of Spain. It is known for its high yield and is often used in the production of table wines and brandy.

Cayetana Blanca is characterized by its large, loose bunches of grapes. The berries are medium-sized, with a thin skin and a high juice content. This variety is valued for its ability to produce a significant volume of wine, although the quality is generally considered to be average compared to other Spanish grape varieties.

Cayetana Blanca is a vigorous vine that adapts well to various soil types and climates. It is predominantly found in the Extremadura region of Spain, where it thrives in the hot, dry conditions. The grape is typically harvested in late September to early October, depending on the weather conditions of the growing season.
