November
13, 2003 European Union - 2003 Wine Production lowest in 10 years
Wine production in the EU-15 will be the lowest in 10 years,
according to a recent COPA-COGECA report. The drop in production is
primarily the result of the heat wave and drought that hit central
and southern Europe during the summer months.
Wine:
World Situation and Outlook Report - March 2003
Total U.S. wine exports have leveled off after the large increases
seen during the 1990s. Bottled wine imports surpassed the $2 billion
level as the wine trade gap widens. Bottled wine exports are only
one-fifth of imports. Competition for global market share continues
to be strong, with new world wine producers expanding wine
production and aggressively marketing their products. The more
traditional wine-producing countries of the European Union (EU)
strive to cut production, improve quality, and struggle to maintain
market share.
