In 2023, Italy leads EU grape production with 8.25 million metric tons, followed by France and Spain with 6.25 and 6.1 million metric tons, respectively. Turkey is also significant but as a non-EU country. Greece, Portugal, and Romania contribute under one million metric tons each, with growth varying minimally across these smaller producers. Year-on-year trends show moderate increases, impacted by climate and sector-specific factors. Over the last five years, the compound annual growth rate reflects steady growth, with Italy and Spain showing more consistency compared to France.
Future trends indicate a focus on sustainable practices to counter climate impact, with innovation in cultivation, and a potential change in consumer preferences influencing production techniques and distribution methods in top grape-producing EU countries.
