Vineyards in the Vale dos Vinhedos, in the state of Rio Grande do Sul
Brazil is the third-largest producer of wine in South America, behind Argentina and Chile; production in 2018 was 3.1 million hectolitres (82,000,000 US gal), slightly more than New Zealand. In 2019, Brazil was the 15th largest wine producer in the world. [1] A substantial area is devoted to viticulture: 82,000 hectares (200,000 acres) in 2018,[1] though much of it produces table grapes rather than wine grapes.
Better quality wines (Brazilian Portuguese: vinho fino) are produced from the European grapevine Vitis vinifera, and in 2003 only some 5,000 ha (12,000 acres) were planted with such vines.[2] The rest are American vines or hybrid vines, many of which are easier to cultivate under Brazilian growing conditions.
