We are, after all, an Italy-based merchant that loves to talk to you fine readers of our blog about the many wonderful regions and producers that the country has to offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, we also&nbsp;recognise that every country that has a wine industry also has some <strong>absolutely exceptional wines<\/strong> to share with the world. That\u2019s why we have a selection of international wines from all over the world in our <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"online store (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.xtrawine.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">online store<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today, we\u2019re going to talk about a country that has perhaps one of the most underappreciated wine industries in the world \u2013 <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.xtrawine.com\/collections\/argentine-wines\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Argentina (opens in a new tab)\">Argentina<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The South American country isn\u2019t the first that most people think about when considering wine. Most tend to go towards the European heavy hitters, such as Italy, France, Spain, and even Germany. If your mind wanders to the <em>Americas<\/em>, you likely think about the USA and little else.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But Argentina actually has a thriving wine industry that produces some absolutely remarkable vintages. Plus, its <strong>climate<\/strong>, combined with its wide variety of terrain, makes it an ideal place to grow a whole slew of great grapes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And so, we\u2019ve decided to make Argentina the inspiration for today\u2019s article. Join us as we take a brief look at the history of Argentina\u2019s wine industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Early History<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Argentina is unlike most of the European winemaking countries in that it can\u2019t trace its wine history back over millennia. There were no Greeks or Romans to introduce wine into the country during medieval times. And the cultures that did exist in the country never cultivated grapes, likely because there are <strong>very few grapes that are actually native to Argentina<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It wasn\u2019t until the Spanish started to explore and colonize the Americas that Argentina first started to develop any semblance of a wine industry. The most common story is that the <strong>Spanish missionaries<\/strong> who&nbsp;travelled to the country brought vines with them with the goal of planting them. This makes sense as wine had been the reserve of religious groups for centuries up until that point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These vines found their way to South America and spread into Chile and the United States. And of course, several of them ended up in Argentina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The interesting thing about these vines is that they didn\u2019t really offer the highest levels of quality. Remember that a voyage to the Americas would have taken several weeks at that point in history. That means that only especially hardy vines could make the trip. Plus, a ship would have limited space for vines when there\u2019s more valuable cargo that they could take. That means that the missionaries would&nbsp;prioritise <strong>vines that produced high quantities<\/strong> while placing less of an emphasis on quality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This most popular of these varieties was the <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Criolla grape (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.xtrawine.com\/collections\/wines\" target=\"_blank\"><em><strong>Criolla grape<\/strong><\/em><\/a>, which produces a fairly rudimentary wine that\u2019s not exactly known for its qualities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nevertheless, from its introduction in the 16<sup>th<\/sup>century, Criolla became the go-to grape for Argentinian wine producers. And it&nbsp;endedup becoming the backbone of the country\u2019s entire wine industry for a good three centuries after the vine was introduced into Argentina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The Evolution into a Winemaking Powerhouse<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If things&nbsp;hadstayed as they were, it\u2019s unlikely that Argentina would have made much of a dent in the international wine industry. Criolla wines just weren\u2019t of a high enough quality for people to care about them when they had access to so many superior wines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, Argentina\u2019s winemaking industry eventually began to evolve. And it\u2019s all thanks to its South American&nbsp;neighbour of <strong>Chile<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was in Chile that the real roots of the Argentinian wine industry got planted. While other South American countries maintained a focus on quantity, <strong>Chile began looking at quality<\/strong>. They imported new technologies from the United States and the Chilean industry began taking the science of viticulture far more seriously. In fact, <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.xtrawine.com\/en\/chilean-wine-vs-italian-wine-who-comes-out-on-top\/\">some Chilean producers even had American winemakers come over to help them make improvements<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The important thing here is that all of these changes made Chilean wines more desirable to both English and American palates. And that opened up a brand new market for the entire South American industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Argentina saw the wonderful things happening in the Chilean industry and decided to look at its own. Argentinian winemakers&nbsp;realised that their country had so much <strong>untapped potential<\/strong> and that they were sacrificing huge amounts of money by doing so little to change their output.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The country followed Chile\u2019s lead and began exploring ways to produce better wines. And like Chile, they began <strong>exporting millions of bottles all over the world<\/strong>. Increased American and European investment only helped the industry to grow even faster. More technologies got introduced to Argentinian winemakers and the quality of the country\u2019s output rocketed upwards in a very short period of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It wasn\u2019t long before the industry began to put itself on a more even footing with other major winemaking countries. <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.xtrawine.com\/collections\/argentine-wines\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Argentina\u2019s wines (opens in a new tab)\">Argentina\u2019s wines<\/a><\/strong> began winning awards for their quality and an increasing number of people began paying attention to the country\u2019s output.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And that\u2019s the way it\u2019s been ever since. Argentina\u2019s wine industry goes from strength to strength every year as more people buy wines from the country. The quality is at a much higher level than it\u2019s ever been.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Argentina\u2019s wine industry is here to stay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Find Argentinian Wines at xtraWine<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We have great respect for an industry that\u2019s <strong>clawed itself up<\/strong> from being an also-ran to being one of the most important winemaking countries of the modern era.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And we\u2019re also quick to offer plaudits to the Argentinian wines that are on the xtraWine website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Head to our&nbsp;<strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Argentinian wines page (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.xtrawine.com\/collections\/argentine-wines\" target=\"_blank\">Argentinian wines page<\/a><\/strong> to find a selection of vintages.
