The global expansion of wine
The global expansion of wine was one of the great cultural and agricultural movements of the 19th and 20th centuries. During this period, Vitis vinifera, a grapevine species native to the Mediterranean basin, was successfully introduced to New World regions such as Chile, Argentina, the United States, Australia, Mexico, and Uruguay. This was made possible through a combination of European migrations, advancements in agricultural techniques, and favorable climatic conditions. These countries did not merely adopt viticulture; they forged distinct winemaking identities, adapting traditional grape varieties to new terroirs and creating unique styles that today enrich the international wine landscape. This phenomenon marked the beginning of a new era in oenological culture, in which wine ceased to be an exclusively European product and became a global expression of history, geography, and artistry.
