Argant is an ancient variety of red wine grape. It originated in Spain and may have been taken to eastern France by the Romans. It was briefly popular, but little of it remains today. It used to be common in southwestern Germany and in Austria under the name Gänsfüßer ("the one having goose-like feet"). The name refers to the leaf shape, which resembles the foot of a goose.[1]
