Our Pairing Suggestion
Argentina's flagship white grape, Torrontés, has a flowery scent and light, bright flavors that make it an ideal match for this poached red snapper with tropical fruit. This intriguing Muscat-like grape may be related to the Torrontés grape indigenous to northern Spain.

Ingredients
- 1/2 cup diced papaya
- 1/2 cup diced mango
- 2 tablespoons diced red onion
- 1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon coarsely chopped tarragon
