Details and technical informations about Winery Jones's La Gare Old Vine Carignan.
Discover the grape variety: Torrontés riojano
Most certainly of Argentine origin, very well known in this country, particularly in the Rioja and Salta regions. It is said to be the result of a cross between the Muscat d'Alexandrie and the Listan Prieto Noir, also known as Criolla Chica. We can note its resemblance with the torrontés sanjuanino, most certainly by the fact that it is also resulting from the same crossing. In Spain (Galicia), a grape variety bears the name of torrontés, it is most certainly the fernao Pires. Torrontés riojano is also present in Chile, but in France it is practically unknown.

The word of the wine: Amylic
Aroma reminiscent of banana, candy, and sometimes nail polish, particularly present in primeur wines. The amylic taste is reminiscent of the aromas of industrial confectionery and does not reflect a great expression of terroir.
