Alarije
Alarije is a minor variety of white wine grape from Spain. It is most often used in blends. History
Alarije is thought to originate in Spain. DNA analysis had shown that it was part of the Malvasia family, but more recent DNA analysis suggests that it is genetically distinct from Malvasia. Distribution and Wines
