Dirección General de Industria Alimentaria –

This year 2023, Spain was elected as the seat of the 44th World Congress of Vine and Wine and the 21st General Assembly of the International Organisation of Vine and Wine (OIV) held in Cadiz and Jerez de la Frontera, respectively, from 5 to 9 June. The slogan chosen for this year's Congress, 'Vitiviniculture and Information Technologies', highlights the importance of new technologies in the present and future of the wine sector. A digitization that contrasts with the long vinicultural tradition of different areas in Spain, such as the Sedi region of Congress: the province of Cadiz has been producing wines for more than 3,000 years.The Congress will offer an exceptional opportunity for the potentially wine-growing part of Spain and also know a unique environment, where the culture, art and tradition of wine in our country, shake hands. A tribute to the past without losing sight of the future.
