From 12 to 16 October 2026, at the invitation of the Government of the People’s Republic of China, the 47th World Congress of Vine and Wine alongside the 24th General Assembly of the International Organisation of Vine and Wine (OIV) will take place in the city of Yinchuan, Ningxia (PR China), under the theme: “Shaping new paradigms for the global Vine and Wine sector: transforming to meet challenges, innovating to ignite vitality, and sustaining to anchor a shared future”.
China, which joined the OIV in 2024, is the most recent Member of the Organisation and the first new Member of its second century.
The country has the 3rd greatest planted vineyard surface in the world. It is also the 11th largest consumer and importer of wine, and the 1st table grapes producer in the world (43% of world production). China has developed, over a few decades, a production of high-quality wines expressing a diversity of terroirs.

Ogni anno, uno Stato membro dell'OIV invita e ospita scienziati e ricercatori di tutto il mondo per presentare e condividere i loro risultati.
Le presentazioni fatte durante il Congresso si basano su lavori scientifici o accademici e sono selezionate per la loro rilevanza ed eccellenza. I lavori vengono poi pubblicati in open access. Attualmente, circa 600 documenti scientifici sono disponibili attraverso questo sistema.
