Wine

. 167 million hectolitres/yr (2014-18)
. 65% of world production 
. 60% of global consumption​
. 70% of exports


Picture

The European Union is the world leading producer of wine. Average production in 2018/2019 was 188 million hectolitres. It accounts for 45% of world wine-growing areas, 65% of production, 57% of global consumption and 70% of exports in global terms.


The European goals are,

  • making EU wine producers even more competitive - enhancing the reputation of European wines and regaining market share both in the EU and outside
  • making the market-management rules simpler, clearer and more effective – to achieve a better balance between supply and demand
  • preserving the best traditions of European wine growing and boosting its social and environmental role in rural areas.

From 1 January 2016, CAP replaces the old EU planting rights regime by a Scheme of authorisations for vine planting, enabling competitive producers to increase production.
