Argentina’s wine sales fell 4.7% in September 2026
The country marketed 707,145 hectolitres during the month; white wine sales rose 8%, while red and rosé declined 9.3%.
Argentina marketed 707,145 hectolitres of wine in September 2026, down 4.7% from the same month in 2025, according to figures from the country’s National Vitiviniculture Institute cited by Los Andes. Over the first 9 months of 2026, the overall market contracted by 0.2%.1
Performance differed by category: white wine sales increased by 8%, while sales of red and rosé wines declined by 9.3%. Los Andes attributed the growth in whites to specialists who cited demand for fresher, softer flavour profiles, warm-weather and aperitif occasions, and a range of white grape varieties suited to local growing conditions.1
In Mendoza, described by the source as Argentina’s main wine-producing province, shipments remained stable during 2026 despite the national decline. No separate shipment volume for the province was provided.1
