Multiple Choice

Which of the following grape varieties is NOT among the predominant varieties found in the North Wine Zone?

In the North Wine Zone, the climate and altitude favor aromatic whites and robust reds, with Torrontés as the region’s signature white and Malbec and Bonarda as common reds. Chardonnay, while grown in Argentina, doesn’t hold the same level of prevalence there because its style and flavor profile don’t align with the North’s typical wines as strongly as Torrontés and the reds do. So Chardonnay is not among the predominant varieties in the North.
