The 2023 data shows that Spain leads in European grape harvest area for PDO wines, followed closely by France and Italy. Spain, with 532.68 thousand hectares, exhibited modest growth, similar to France, while Italy saw a significant increase of 3.67%. Portugal and Romania showed slight positive changes, contrasting with declines in Austria, Slovenia, and Greece. Drastic reductions were noted in the UK and Bulgaria.
Future trends to watch include the recovery potential in regions facing declines, especially in the light of climate change impacts, and the potential for technological or policy-driven increases in less traditionally dominant countries.
