Interesting topic!
A big quality leap happened in the nineties, when some french wine makers bought vinyards in the Mendoza. Before the wine was pretty ordinary, mostly reds and a few acceptable Torrontes from La Rioja and Salta.
Now young Argentinians are studying in Europe or US and return to make Argentinian wine better.
We had a seasonal restaurant in the sierras de Cordoba in the nineties and now a friend of us opened the first vineyard there with pretty reasonable local wine. Lack of money and extremly adverse working conditions, like bureaucracy and inflation and currency restrictions made it almost impossibile to thrive. Let's see how it changes now.
