Default Is Airen the most widely planted wine grape?

http://www.wineloverspage.com/winead...wa070103.phtml
Grenache probably reaches its pinnacle in Spain's Priorat and France's
Chateauneuf-du-Pape, where it's the primary grape in sought-after,
ageworthy wines. But much of it disappears into anonymous jugs of wine
rarely sold with varietal labels. (The same is true, by the way, but
even more so, of the white grape Airén, the No. 1 most widely planted
variety, which is grown almost exclusively in Spain and is almost
never seen in a varietal wine.)
