In 2023, Italy's grape import volume stood at 175.0 thousand metric tons. The forecast predicts a steady decline from 162.0 thousand metric tons in 2024 down to 111.0 thousand metric tons by 2028. Year-on-year, this represents a decrease, highlighting constraints possibly related to domestic production capabilities, changes in consumer preferences, or supply chain adjustments. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) over these five years indicates a consistent downward trend in grape imports.

Future trends to watch for include:

Potential shifts in trade policies or tariffs affecting import volumes.
Impacts of climate change on domestic grape cultivation, potentially reducing the need for imports.
Changes in consumer demand for grape varieties that could alter import necessities.
