In 2023, the UK sold production of white wine with Protected Designation of Origin was negligible in the market, setting a baseline for future growth. From 2024 to 2028, forecasts show a steady decline in production from 4 liters to 2 liters, indicating a negative annual growth trajectory with year-on-year declines. The compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) from 2024 to 2028 reflects a concerning downward trend.

Future trends to watch for:

Emerging consumer preferences for locally sourced or sustainable products could impact volumes positively or negatively.
Regulatory changes in the designation status or incentives might influence production practices and volumes.
Climate changes affecting grape yields could result in further impacts on protected designation production levels.
