Torrontés has turned into the symbolic white grape of Argentina, its unquestionable representative in the international market. This grape is part of the criollo vines. Of doubtful origin, recent research has proved it comes from Malvasia, in the Mediterranean area. Its recognition is the result of wines produced in the Valley of Cafayate, in Salta. It is due to the microclimate of this area that the grapevine has had an exceptional development, thus giving origin to fruity, tasty wines with a long aftertaste.
