Let them come knocking ! Standing on the edge of a new campaign, awaiting the harvest of the Northern Hemisphere, August is not the most active month for the wine business. However, it is an enjoyable time to take a look at international leaders, opportunities and contacts in order to reassess one’s export strategy.
The economic crisis coupled with too strong a euro has had consequences for quite a few wine professionals. French wine sales in the United States have been challenged, even though US wine consumption is still increasing. With the rising dollar and whispers of growth being back on track (especially for Champagne sales), wine professionals are at the ready for opportunities to knock. WineAlley suggests you let them ! Use our international wine market information (organised by country), award-winning wine list, and expert opinions to make the best of them !
