Argentina

Argentina is one of South America’s leading wine-producing countries, with a winemaking tradition rooted in centuries of European influence. Its vineyards stretch from the high-altitude regions of the northwest to the cooler southern provinces, with dry conditions, abundant sunshine and the Andes providing distinctive conditions for viticulture.

Malbec is Argentina’s flagship variety and has earned international recognition for its rich fruit, freshness and depth, while Cabernet Sauvignon, Bonarda, Torrontés and Chardonnay are also important. Mendoza is the country’s dominant wine region, complemented by Salta, San Juan, Patagonia and other emerging areas. Argentine producers combine traditional winemaking with modern innovation, increasingly exploring high-altitude sites, sustainable viticulture and diverse terroirs.
