Argentina

Argentina wine has its roots in Spain. During the Spanish colonization of the Americas, Juan Cedrón (or Cidrón) brought the first vine cuttings to Santiago del Estero in 1557, and the cultivation of the grape and wine production stretched first to neighboring regions, and then to other parts of the country.

Argentina winemakers have traditionally been more interested in quantity than quality and the country consumes 90% of the wine it produces. The desire to increase exports fueled significant advances in quality. Argentina wines started being exported during the 1980's, and are currently growing rapidly in popularity.

Argentina is the largest wine producer in South America and the 5th largest in the world, with over 1,200 million liters (2003), and the 13th largest exporter in the world (431 million USD in 2005). Argentina produces the best Malbec.

Due to the high altitude and low humidity of the main wine producing regions, Argentine vineyards rarely face the problems that affect grapes in other countries. This permits cultivating with little or no pesticides, allowing even organic wines to be easily produced.
