Likewise, premium wine exports showed a 13.5% increase and a 15.4% increase in the super premium wine exports for 9-liter cases.

Argentine Wines – 2013與未來
Wines of Argentina 主席Alberto Arizu Jr. 表示：「於二零一三年，Wines of Argentina的焦點落在拉近與新消費者的距離，因此，我們的活動多以『新世代』作為軸心，同時亦有其他的活動，包括『Malbec World Day』的慶祝活動、Argentina Wine Awards大獎和網上平台的互動推廣。
全賴這些努力，除了Malbec(馬貝克)成為了世界知名而又標誌着阿根廷葡萄酒的葡萄品種外，阿根廷的國際地位亦得以提升。例如，以FOB船上交易價格而言，Malbec於二零一二年所帶來的出口收入已超越了二零一一年的收入，達到四千一百萬美元；另外，以九公升裝箱的出口量而言，高級葡萄酒出口有13.5%的增長、頂級葡萄酒則有15.4%的增長。還有，在過去十年，傳統方法和創新思維的融合推動了阿根廷葡萄酒業的繁榮。現在，阿根廷葡萄酒生產商在國際舞台上贏得世界級的地位，有無可限量的前景。
