Argentine Wine Day is celebrated every November 24 and commemorates the declaration of wine as the national beverage—a recognition that highlighted the cultural, social, and economic role of the wine industry in the country. The date, which began as a decree and was later established by law, invites us to reflect on how wine became part of Argentina’s identity—from rural labor and regional economies to everyday life, where past and present come together. In Mendoza, the country’s winemaking epicenter, the celebration activates routes, proposals, and stories that reconnect people with the origin.
In this context, the presence of several Mendoza wineries on the World’s Best Vineyards 2025 list adds an important point: Argentine wine is not only part of local culture, it also builds international prestige. This day becomes an opportunity to explore projects that represent the diversity of the territory, each with its own identity and iconic wine. The celebration works as an invitation to rediscover the province through a new lens, understanding how each vineyard tells a fragment of the Argentine wine story celebrated across the country.
