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.
