Hi Gene. @gvazusa
The Listán Prieto grape is primarily known in Chile as País.
This is the most commonly used local name for this variety in the Chilean context, especially in the production of traditional and heritage wines.
Your answer, “Criolla Girl,” seems to be a mix-up with “Criolla Chica”, which is the name used in Argentina for the same grape. The word “Girl” has no relation to wine terminology and is not an appropriate translation.
Could you let me know if the question you asked “What is another name for the Listán Prieto grape?” is part of a test from one of the courses you’re currently taking on the platform, or if it’s just a personal doubt?
If this question does appear in a test and you believe there may be an error, I’d really appreciate it if you could let me know which course it belongs to, so I can review it. If any correction is needed, I’ll make sure to report it to the content team for review and prompt update.
I hope this information is helpful. If you have any other questions, I’m here and happy to assist.
Best regards,
