The global wine market will continue to develop slowly at a steady rate, but the landscape of consumption will continue to change as countries with traditionally high consumption rates will lose volumes while new markets will gain, according to the latest IWSR Forecast Report 2010 to 2015.
Consumption in many of the major wine-producing countries, such as Italy, France, Argentina and Spain, is expected to decrease, while the Asia-Pacific region, as well as the US, Canada and Russia, will see the strongest growth.
On a global level, sparkling wine will grow more in percentage terms than still light wine. (IWSR / January 2011)
