In Uruguay, when talking about the Bortrytis wines, this grape is considered the main protagonist, as it gives origin to the best and finest late harvest wines (ripe grape clusters, harvested by hand and aged in casks), many of which have been awarded the first prize at international contests.
For many, this white grape is one of the most easily adaptable to the soil and the climate of Uruguay. Many winemakers concentrate their attention on it because the wines obtained from this variety are really sublime, as far as both body and aroma are concerned.
