In Rio Negro, Sauvignon Blanc and Semillón are described as not being the most planted varieties but captivating. Which statement is true?

In this case, the idea to grasp is that a region can produce grapes that are highly regarded without them being the majority in plantings. The description tells you that Sauvignon Blanc and Semillón are “not the most planted varieties but captivating,” which means they exist and are valued, but there are other varieties planted more widely. So the true statement is that they are not among the most planted varieties. They are indeed grown, just not in the largest share. The other options imply dominance, rarity, or exclusivity that isn’t supported by the description.
