Grapes

The grapes of Argentina

Malbec covers about a quarter of the country's vineyards, and it's where most people start. These are the 37 wine grapes the INV counts, most planted first. The pink ones, Cereza, Criolla Grande and Moscatel Rosado, are criollas, grapes that grew up in the Americas from the vines the Spanish brought, and they still cover a lot of ground.

The figure beside each grape is the planted area in hectares from the INV's yearly vineyard survey. Table and raisin grapes like Flame Seedless and Red Globe are left out.
